W2W America Conferences

Women2Women International Conference

In 2006, Empower Peace launched the Women2Women international leadership program to bring together promising young women, aged 15 - 19, from the United States and Arab and Muslim world.

Working with educational partners, such as Lesley University and Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government and Law School, Women2Women meaningfully engages these young women in the issues that define their lives and enables them to take action in their own communities.

At the same time, Women2Women is building much needed bridges of understanding and trust between improbably allies, uniting them in shared interest and purpose.

Over 550 young women from nearly 30 countries now comprise of the Women2Women network.
