ICWIN’s

Mission


ICWIN's mission is to coordinate community-building activities to promote gender equality in a global framework. 



Advocacy for Gender Equality: Advocate and partner at city, county and state level for adoption of “CEDAW”. Our vision is an inclusive, equal and just society that promotes and protects human rights, gender equality and the integrity of the environment.             
                                                                   

Be Bold for Change: Educate and Unite against all forms of “Violence”.  Our vision is a future without violence that nurtures a culture of peace, safety, justice, awareness and empowerment.                     


                         

Collaboration: Create a dynamic platform to express a “Collective Voice” and "Unite for Diversity". Our vision is a large network of concerned citizens of Iranian descent working in union with like-minded people from various cultures globally. Collectively our presence is known, our voices are heard, and we gain the power to drive real change for our kids, families and communities.             



ICWIN’s Vision


ICWIN’s Philosophy

The Circle will focus on raising consciousness on issues related to Iranian women both inside Iran and in the Diasporas. In addition, the Circle aims to serve as a bridge not only connecting the Iranian women’s communities but in line with idea of intersectionality also to connect them with other women of race, color, ethnicity, social and economic standing at global level.
