IWPR works to champion issues of women’s rights around the globe while supporting female reporters in sometimes challenging environments.
Our journalists, editors and partners not only highlight inequalities and abuses but also celebrate the achievements of women driving change in their own societies.
"Women are on the frontlines, and International Women’s Day is a pause to celebrate inspiration and achievement. But it should also be an opportunity to recognise urgency and risk – there are gains, but there is much more to do."
Anthony Borden
