Work
Today, IWDA focuses on Asia and the Pacific. Currently we have project partnerships in Cambodia, East Timor, Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Sri Lanka, Thai-Burma border, and Vanuatu.
IWDA has developed a Strategic Directions 2008-2013 document to guide our work over the next five years. The cornerstones of this work are: pathways to engaged and informed citizenship; policy influence and gender justice.
There are six program goals and three cross-cutting issues designed to focus our work in catalysing transformational change for women and girls. These are supported by 7 organisational change goals to help build a more robust, responsive and effective organisation.

Famous quotes containing the word work:
“Black women ... work because their husbands can’t make enough money at their jobs to keep everything going.... They don’t go to work to find fulfillment, or adventure, or glamour and romance, like so many white women think they are doing. Black women work out of necessity.”
—Wilma Rudolph (1940–1994)
“The work of art, just like any fragment of human life considered in its deepest meaning, seems to me devoid of value if it does not offer the hardness, the rigidity, the regularity, the luster on every interior and exterior facet, of the crystal.”
—André Breton (1896–1966)
“The next work of Carlyle will be entitled “Bow-Wow,” and the title-page will have a motto from the opening chapter of the Koran: “There is no error in this Book.””
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)
