Based at the Middlebury Institute of International Studies, The WIP® Internet news service is your global source for women's perspectives. Connecting you to the world through our Feature Articles, Byline Portal, and Current Headlines, The WIP promotes diversity and is not associated with any particular religious, political, or cultural affiliation. We provide an opportunity to balance the under-representation of women journalists and strive to bring together divergent cultures and opinions in solution-based dialogue.
