WORLD | PWR | RAISING | Awareness, Support and Funds for Investment in Women's Leadership and Empowerment

[Edited extract from public address]

Working throughout the year to build on the momentum of our global Convenings with ongoing programs of dialogue and collaboration. 

"Women’s leadership is key for the creation of just and lasting peace." – UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres
The Parliament of the World’s Religions’ guiding document, Towards a Global Ethic calls for a transformation of consciousness and lifting up women is a critical component of this. 

We invite you to join us in our mission by making a donation today, just $25 will have an impact and support women's leadership programming at the Parliament.

The Parliament’s Women’s Leadership Task Force delivers programs that uphold women’s empowerment, transformational leadership, and gender equality. Highlights of 2025 include holding three events at the UN Commission on the Status of Women, including The Power of Grassroots & Global Movements, Building Game-Changing Partnerships, and a one-woman play titled Not a Man’s World. The Women’s Leadership Task Force also celebrated Mother’s Day with a special virtual Sacred Circle Conversation: Honoring Mother Earth, Our Mothers, Ourselves, and One Another.

Looking forward to 2026 and beyond, the Women’s Leadership Task Force will be hosting online programs dedicated to Jane Goodall. Intergenerational grassroots women leaders will hold provocative conversations about their work, their dreams, game-changing partnerships, next-level solutions and life-giving actions for people and the planet. These events will be open to all with opportunities to join in the conversation.

We encourage you to learn more about the Parliament of the World’s Religions and the work we are doing with and for women’s leadership.

In gratitude,
Rev. Charline Manuel, Chair, Board of Trustees
