About this Initiative

Since its inception, AWID has consistently provided accessible, high-quality and diverse information on women’s rights and gender and development issues. We believe that providing information is fundamental to building understanding of the trends affecting women’s rights, setting agendas and amplifying the voices, perspectives and diverse forms of organizing of women from around the world.

The WRI team produces and sources a wide range of information products in English, Spanish and French – from news, interviews and analysis to job announcements, new resources, events and urgent appeals – and disseminates them through the AWID website, social media and e-newsletters.

WRI continuously strives to provide a feminist lens and analysis on current global events through our weekly Friday Files.
