Delegations are an integral part of CWD’s history and mission. These trips facilitate meaningful conversations with women leaders in democracies around the world and here at home. We meet with elected officials, human rights advocates, nonprofit organizations, industry leaders, and Indigenous communities to learn about the lives and experiences of women in the places we visit.

These delegations create space for the exchange of ideas and the building of connections among fellow participants. They offer an opportunity to learn about the challenges and successes governments and societies face in advancing and protecting the rights of women and girls, as well as efforts to strengthen institutions and uphold democratic principles.
