Women’s Institute for Solidarity and Empowerment is a research institution that partners with grassroots women’s organizations and working women to develop publications and media that broadens and popularizes their struggle for social change. The real change makers of history are women who are actively engaged in changing the world, not merely interpreting it. We believe society progresses towards the genuine social liberation of women through working and oppressed people collectively taking action to struggle for their rights and livelihood. We aim to support women’s struggle for a dignified livelihood and social freedom. We center on the experiences of working and oppressed communities and how they are decisively taking action to change their conditions which benefits generations of women to come. We hope to popularize these struggles through publications and media that can be directly integrated into the work of the communities with which we are partnering. Their work informs our research and empowers women to link their struggles together in solidarity to achieve social change.
