The International Council of Women (ICW) is the first women's organization to work in the international scene at the beginning of the 20th century. Ever since its establishment, the organization has been at the forefront of bringing worldwide attention to the issue of women's rights and leading the battle against gender-based social injustice. In that sense, the ultimate goal is the creation of a happier, safer and more egalitarian world for all. 2, record 1, English, - International%20Council%20of%20Women
