International Anglican Women’s Network (IAWN)

The International Anglican Women’s Network (IAWN) serves as a global voice of Anglican women, links women from around the world and is an official network of the worldwide Anglican Communion.

The purpose of the IAWN is to uphold the God-given dignity of women and girls, to work to eradicate gender-based inequality and violence and to promote just relationships among all people.

 

Our priorities include: 

  • Promoting gender equality and the participation of women in all levels of decision-making throughout the Anglican Communion.
  • Sharing the stories of women in the Anglican Communion.
  • Supporting and accompanying Anglicans and others who are working to eradicate gender-based violence, including human trafficking.
  • Advocating access for all women and girls to education and health care.
  • Advocating the eradication of extreme poverty, hunger and environmental abuse.
  • Promoting the physical and spiritual well-being of all women and girls.
