International Women's Media Foundation
The International Women's Media Foundation (IWMF), located in Washington, D.C., is a network of thousands of women journalists working internationally to elevate the status of women in the media.〔IWMF website http://www.iwmf.org/about.aspx〕 The IWMF has created programs to help women in the media develop practical solutions to the obstacles they face in their careers and lives. The IWMF's work includes the Courage in Journalism Awards, the Lifetime Achievement Awards, the Leadership Institute and the Reporting on Agriculture and Women Project. The IWMF also supports an international free press and often forms petitions asking international governments to release journalists in captivity and offer protection to journalists in danger.
==History==
In March 2011, the IWMF organized an international conference of women leaders at George Washington University in order to commemorate the organization's twentieth anniversary and reflect on the status of women in the media.
In 2011, the IWMF published a report titled ''Global Report on the Status of Women in the News Media''.
In September 2015, the IWMF released a free mobile security app designed for journalists. The app was received critically by security experts because the app is closed-source; the IWMF has not published the reports of the audits that it claims to have done; the IWMF has access to the contents of the messages that are sent with the app as well as the locations of its users; and because the app's privacy policy states that the IWMF reserves the right to share this data with a wide variety of third parties, respond to subpoenas and court orders from an unspecified number of jurisdictions, and to modify the privacy policy at any time without prior notice to the app's users. Reverse engineering of the app revealed that "every action is logged", that the user's last locations are stored in plaintext and that the app uses an insecure encryption protocol when connecting to the IWMF's server. In response, the IWMF announced that they will release the application's source code under an open-source license.〔 Security researchers were still critical of the IWMF's model of collecting and storing personal data unencrypted.〔
