Women In Leadership Organization

(WILO) 

Welcome to the Women in Leadership Organization (WILO)! We are a global hub dedicated to advancing women’s leadership, scholarship, and impact. WILO is comprised of three interconnected arms that drive its mission forward: innovative research, an annual international conference (WILC) that convenes leaders and scholars from around the world, and strategic partnerships. Through collaborations with other 501(c)(3) nonprofits and supporting communities of practice, such as the World Council for Curriculum and Instruction and the Commission on the Status of Women—WILO strengthens collective action and shared learning. Together, these efforts foster a dynamic network that empowers women leaders, amplifies knowledge, and supports meaningful change across sectors and communities.
