About Us

Welcome to the blog of the International Federation of University Women (IFUW)!

The International Federation of University Women (IFUW) is an international, non-profit organization of women graduates. We were founded in 1919 by women who believed in the importance of working together for peace, international understanding and friendship.

Our members are women of all ages, cultures, disciplines and professions. Many of them are experts and leaders in their fields. Through IFUW, women graduates form an international network, bringing an interdisciplinary approach to global problems.

Our 79 national affiliates and members are present in more than 120 countries, where they carry out a wide range of educational, humanitarian and cultural activities.

Through this blog we hope to highlight issues of interest to our members and provide them with a space to comment and converse.

We look forward to hearing from you!
