IWWG Write Forward Anthology
Since its founding, IWWG has championed the power of women’s voices, ensuring they are heard, celebrated, and shared. From our early newsletters to our most recent works, IWWG anthologies capture the depth and diversity of women’s experiences. In 2025, we are taking this legacy to new heights. In 2025, our anthology efforts aligned with the 69th United Nations Commission on the Status of Women (CSW69). This event is a call to action, reminding us of the power of storytelling to illuminate the 12 critical areas of concern outlined in the Beijing Platform for Action—from education and health to climate justice and human rights. The 2025 IWWG Anthology, supported by The de Groot Foundation, brings together voices from around the world to reflect on these themes. The anthology previewed on March 8, International Women’s Day, at the United Nations in New York City, as part of our statement at CSW69. We will also host a reading in Summer 2025. We will have a printed edition in the Summer and look forward to sharing it with our community. Warmly, Explore our past anthologies to see the incredible legacy you’re helping to build. |
