A committee comprising faculty from all ten schools and colleges at GW, as well as student members and representatives from the Board of Trustees and GW administration, has been carrying out an international search for the founding director of the Global Women's Institute (GWI). As a member of the search committee, I am delighted to report that our first candidate will be on campus Thursday, February 23. As part of the campus visit, a reception is scheduled from 5:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m., Duques Hall 553.
The Women’s Studies Program invites you to attend the reception where the candidate will discuss her achievements and commitment to the GWI mission. We hope you can join us and hear the candidate's remarks about her work and achievements.
We are searching for the best person to launch the Global Women's Institute and promote its mission of improving the lives of women and girls worldwide through enhanced teaching, research, and service engagement at the George Washington University.
The required criteria for the Director include the following:
• enduring commitment to women's/gender issues in a global landscape
• experience with more than one of the HERS areas (health, education, rights, and security)
• success in institution building
• major fundraising experience through grants and/or individual donors
• demonstrated leadership and management experience
• excellent communication skills (in writing and orally).
