About GWLN
It is increasingly being recognized that there can be no peace, security, or sustainable economic development without women's equal participation in all spheres of society. Global Women's Leadership Network (GWLN) has long believed that empowering women is the RIGHT thing to do: it is also the best means of ending poverty, violence and terrorism, environmental degradation and creating a more just, free world. That is why GWLN is part of Santa Clara University -- helping to build leaders of competence, conscience, and compassion – particularly women leaders.
It is time for women to become the leaders they are destined to be -- in every realm and in every sector of society. This is the task that GWLN is focused on. Impactful social movements take 60 to 80 years. GWLN is building leadership capacity for sustainable global change beyond any one person's lifetime.
As an organization dedicated to a new future for humanity, the Global Women's Leadership Network (GWLN) is fueling this historic demographic shift towards female economic emancipation worldwide. Since 2004 we have focused our capacity-building efforts for women around transformative leadership. We strive to engage and empower women as leaders and agents of change by shifting their thinking about themselves and their communities, giving them confidence in their abilities beyond what they ever imagined and networking them together for support and the proliferation of best practices.
GWLN is financed through the generous contributions of many individual donors and benefits from thousands of volunteer hours.
