Mission: 

The mission of I.M.O.W. is to value the lives of women around the world.

Programs offered: 

SPEAKER SERIES: Extraordinary Voices, Extraordinary Change is I.M.O.W.'s renowned speaker series, held quarterly in San Francisco. It is a series of lectures by women from around the world who have made profound and unprecedented political, social and economic changes in the lives of women worldwide. These lectures highlight the roles they have played to show that women can and have made a difference nationally and internationally.

EXHIBITIONS & SPECIAL EVENTS: Exhibitions and special events offer visitors engaging experiences that inform them about women's issues and roles across cultures and throughout time, provoking them to question the status quo through an examination of individual identity, cultural structures and social order.

Interactive global online exhibitions invite visitors to join in dialogue with other women around the world, support international partner organizations doing important work on behalf of women, and build global communities through the reach of the internet. A public forum of I.M.O.W.'s Global Council members is held annually with over a dozen women leaders to discuss global issues concerning women's human rights.

ONLINE EDUCATION: As part of a continuing commitment to education, I.M.O.W. provides online art and education programs and curricula for teachers that are culturally-sensitive, age-appropriate and interactive.
