International Womxn’s Week 2022

ACCESS

This year, we are celebrating IWW in collaboration with Women's Law Association (WLA) at the Harvard Law school. Our shared theme for IWW 2022 is “Access”.

We define “Access” in two ways. The first definition of the word—“a means of approaching or entering a place”—reflects the physicality of access. This is central to both WiD and WLA’s values of moving away from a society that prioritizes selected groups while marginalizing others. We also define access as “the right or opportunity to use or benefit from something,” which illuminates the future work that is needed to tackle issues of accessibility, race, gender, class, and so much more in the context of design and the legal system.
