Mentoring programs. Women’s centers. Support for student parents. A new rule from the Department of Education puts all of them at risk by turning college accreditation into a political test.

The Department received more than 7,000 comments and made no real changes.

AAUW is calling on Congress for oversight before accreditors begin putting it into practice. We will keep fighting for colleges that are free to teach and research, and where every student has a fair chance to learn and succeed.

Equity Knows No Borders.

On United Nations Day, we recognize the importance of global cooperation and collective action to advance peace, dignity, education, and equality for all.

As an organization with special consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), AAUW remains committed to advancing Sustainable Development Goal 5: Gender Equality and supporting opportunities for women and girls worldwide.

Women with disabilities face pay disparities rooted in ableism, workplace discrimination, and structural barriers that limit access to jobs, accommodations, and economic opportunity. Women with disabilities are more likely to be concentrated in low-wage and subminimum wage jobs.

Without policy reform, these pay inequities will persist. While we work to advance change, AAUW’s free salary negotiation and financial literacy programs can help you advocate for fair pay and strengthen your long-term economic security.

On this Disabled Women’s Equal Pay Day, we urge you to get empowered. Take action: https://www.aauw.org/resources/programs/womens-economic-empowerment-initiative/

Every girl deserves the opportunity to learn, lead, and build the future she chooses.

On International Day of the Girl, we’re reminded that gender equity starts with removing barriers to education and expanding opportunities for the next generation.

At AAUW, that means advancing access to higher education and helping create pathways to economic security.

Cornell’s shocking handling of an alleged r**e isn't an isolated case. Every educational institution, including University of Hawaiʻi, can do better.
