Who founded the organization?

Founded in 1996, it was founded by six young women in Dar el Salam, Egypt. Names remain unsaid.

Who runs/ works for the organization?

The orginiztion works with many volunteers across the country, it's headquarters are located in Egypt, Cairo. The person who runs the orginization is not found or unable to be determined.
What is their objective or mission?

To provide women with the capability to be able to control and handle themselves without the need for there to be a male present. To have the right to be able to make their own decisions, to be able to participate in government, to be able to be treated equally by everyone else, and to enjoy their rights.

The society also works hard to achieve awareness so that woman will be brave enough to stand up and protest for their rights.

What strategies are they using to meet these objectives?

To help achieve their goals the organization work hard to raise awareness to people and government groups, and various media to get the word out.

Are their strategies effective or ineffective?

In my opinion their method has worked but not enough to completely stop the abuse done to woman. There are still numerous cases where woman can’t speak up and have their rights taken away from them. Their stratigies have been effective but not enough to end the abuse. The orginization still needs more work on advertising their projects and plans.

How is the organization funded?

This organization is funded by the government of Switzerland a donation of  USD 2.1 million.
How to get involved?
One of the many ways to get involved is by joining the ECWR to take action; you can also help by raising awareness,  and reportingwomen’s abuse.

What strategies/programs/projects are they using to meet this objective?

The International Alliance of Women have partnered with many different organizations to get the word out. Some of them are: World Health Organization, Unesco Paris, and the Food and Nutrition Organization in Rome. The staff of all of these organizations have people on them that have been on IAW or are still on their staff.

The International Alliance of Women have one upcoming event held in New York. They are holding this event about bankruptcy and women.

The International Alliance of Women is joining a campaign for 16 Days working on Gender Base Violence.

Why are these strategies effective or ineffective?

I think these strategies are effective. Getting the word out about the inequalities of Men and Women around the world where you think wouldn't have that, to broadcast that on the streets in those cities.

To join different events like the campaign is also a great idea. They are useful and effective in getting people informed about what is going on. Like I said before, not just in Women's Rights. In both Men and Women's Rights globally. It is also good that they are working globally to advertise and to get information out.

How is this organization funded?

This organization is a NGO - meaning a Non Government Organization. They are not funded by the Government.

How can you get involved?

You can get involved with the International Alliance of Women organization by joining by membership. It isn't free but it is just a monthly fee.

You can also get involved by applying to be on the Board. To really be involved and to go up close and personal with this problem and to be a part of the resolution.

Also by funding. Since it is a NGO they base their work on the generosity of others. By funding you can help them with advertisement and their events and their overall work.
