Institute for Women's Policy Research
Advancing Black Women in Leadership Initiative (ABWIL)
Black families are navigating rapid economic change. The ABWIL initiative will expand notions on what's possible and create spaces for solution building and fellowship.
Black women and families are facing rapid economic disruption as workplaces roll back critical supports. IWPR's Advancing Black Women in Leadership (ABWIL) initiative offers a vital counterforce. In partnership with The Maven Collaborative, the ABWIL initiative will conduct rigorous research, challenge unfair systems, and utilize deep seed narrative change to turn insight into action. By investing in a cohort of solution-driven economists, ABWIL is offering new ideas and models of leadership across sectors.
