MCW Center for the Advancement of Women in Science and Medicine - Focus Areas
Women's Leadership Learning Collaborative (WLLC)
The WLLC builds a collaborative cohort of women that have both the skills to overcome barriers and the support they can rely on to collectively achieve success.
Men as Allies
AWSM is building a network of men who have been identified as allies at work by women on campus to amplify necessary partnerships needed for continued advancement of women. In striving for an inclusive and vibrant culture, it takes all of us to reflect on our experiences in the workplace, acknowledge when our experience or the experience of others hasn’t been favorable, then collectively work together to create a different culture at work.
IWill MCW: Gender Equity Campaign
IWill MCW is a personal "call to action" to the entire MCW community to make public pledges to personal actions - strengthening the environment for all genders to thrive. Our aim is to: 1) raise awareness of gender equity in academic medicine by providing meaningful dialogue at MCW to create shared language and understanding and using social media to amplify discussion; and, 2) provide support for and focus on individual action – people pledge to act, and then ask others to join them in this movement.
