Supporting the Parliament of the World's Religions Ongoing Work

At the 2023 Parliament, the Women's Task Force hosted the Women's Freedom Assembly (150mins) and facilitated spaces for sharing messages of hope and identifying partners and partnership opportunities around critical areas of concern: 
  • education for women and girls
  • justice for children
  • political literacy
  • women and community
  • financial literacy
  • climate solutions
  • human trafficking, and 
  • women’s health and wellbeing.
Standing on our commitment to women’s freedom and wisdom, the Parliament of the World’s Religions published Women Advancing Knowledge Equity: The Parliament of the World’s Religions, a collection of biographies about women who are noteworthy leaders and participants in the Parliament Convenings but whose geographical location, economic status, and occupational attentions obscure the significant influence and impact of their lives and work.

This volume, an outgrowth of the ATLA Women in Religion series and the Women in Religion Wiki Project, continues the initiative’s work of creating biographical sources about women in religion that challenge and explore biased conventions and principles that regulate print and digital content creation about women.

This season of giving we invite you to commit to knowledge equity, women's freedom and human rights, and the ongoing work of our organization.
