IWL Consortium Initiative on WOMEN & HEALTH The Institute for Women’s Leadership Consortium is pleased to launch and coordinate the new IWL Consortium Initiative on Women & Health in spring, 2013. This ambitious endeavor recognizes that women’s health around the world is shaped as much by social, economic, political and environmental forces as by biology. The IWL Initiative on Women & Health features an 18-month series of courses, activities and programs designed to stimulate university-wide engagement around this topic. This collaborative initiative offers unprecedented expertise and Rutgers resources to analyze women’s health and the structural conditions that shape it at the local, national, and global levels. The IWL Consortium Initiative on Women & Health is coordinated by the IWL and sponsored in conjunction with the Office of the Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs, the School of Social Work, the Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy, the Institute for Health, Health Care Policy & Aging Research, the School of Arts And Sciences, the History Department, GAIA Centers, and the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy. REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS As part of the IWL Consortium Initiative on Women & Health, this Request for Proposals aims to provide modest financial support for teams of faculty from all three Rutgers’ campuses to develop new, interdisciplinary courses, as well as new collaborative research activities, public programs, film series, cultural events, innovative workshops and special conferences. Application deadline is April 1, 2013. Download Women and Health Initiative Request for Proposals Download Cover Sheet Download RFP Budget Form
