International Federation of University Women
International Federation of University Women (IFUW), renamed Graduate Women International (GWI) in 2015, is an international organization for female university graduates. IFUW was founded in the wake of the First World War by both British and North American college and university workers who were hoping to contribute to congenial relations between women of different nationalities and to improve general education for women. The organization describes its mission as one of promoting "lifelong education for girls and women" along with "international cooperation, friendship, peace and respect for human rights for all, irrespective of their gender, age, race, nationality, religion, political opinion, gender and sexual orientation or other status" and "advocating for the advancement of the status of women and girls".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ifuw.org/who/about/overview/ )〕
==History==
In the aftermath of World War I, Dean Virginia Gildersleeve of Barnard College, Professor Caroline Spurgeon of the University of London and Rose Sidgwick of the University of Birmingham created the federation to help prevent another catastrophe such as the recent war in Europe. In July 1919, the IFUW was founded in London with founding members from three countries, Canada, Great Britain and the United States. Besides promoting peace, the advancement of careers for women in university formed a major objective for the organization and it created fellowships and promoted the founding of women's clubhouses where women could stay during research visits overseas.〔 The IFUW was renamed Graduate Women International in April 2015.
