By Faith She Leads: A Toolkit for Women of Faith Advancing in Leadership for Global Good

Welcome!

​We are excited that you have decided to explore “By Faith She Leads: A Toolkit for Women of Faith Advancing in Leadership for Global Good.” Your involvement represents an integral part of ensuring that your voice and agency as a woman of faith is included in decision-making toward global peace and security.
 
The 800+ page, self-led toolkit was created by the Institute for Global Engagement’s Center for Women, Faith & Leadership (CWFL), which supports and equips women of faith to assume and advance in leadership roles and influence decision making in global affairs. This is done with a particular emphasis in areas where women are most affected yet have had the least influence—religious freedom, conflict resolution, and peacebuilding.
 
By choosing to utilize this toolkit in your personal and professional lives, you are venturing on an exciting path to:
  • Explore and adapt practical models of leadership which enable you to address issues at the nexus of gender and faith;
  • Understand and influence decision making processes and agenda setting to impact peace and security;
  • Develop new skills and networks of support and advocacy across faith, political, cultural and geographic lines—to include gaining access to other women of faith in leadership roles from across all sectors operating at all levels of advocacy, policy and decision making; and,
  • Connect to a global alumni network of women of faith who are connected through their shared CWFL engagement, and who are equipped to advocate holistically and collaboratively on local and global issues of import to women and their communities.

​As you put this toolkit into practice, we as the CWFL staff are here to help and advise you, as well as connect you to our global family of sisters who have also experienced the toolkit firsthand! Together we can ensure that the voices of women of faith are heard in the highest circles of policy and decision-making, ensuring peace & security for future generations.

Blessings,
