In 2010, The Inner Circle piloted the International Conference for the Empowerment of Women (ICEW), a program designed for the upliftment of women from within an Islamic context, allowing women the safe space to actively engage in issues pertaining directly to them.

This conference happens concurrently with the Annual International Retreat, but focuses specifically on Women’s Empowerment and creating female leadership. By addressing issues around gender based violence, womens rights and Islamic interpretation with regards to the status of women, we hope to empower women with knowledge and the tools to challenge patriachy as this is the fundamental reason that Muslim women suffer the inequality, and sometimes oppression, that they do.
