 Center on Women and Public Policy
About the Center

Welcome to the nation's first complete teaching, research, and outreach center devoted to women and public policy. Since 1985, the Center on Women and Public Policy (CWPP) has used gender analysis to challenge fundamental assumptions about politics, law, and economics on issues ranging from human rights to judicial selection and independence.

UMN Women, Law, and Public Policy Directory

The Center has created and nurtured an interdisciplinary community of scholars on the University of Minnesota campus interested in women, law, and public policy. This directory is to help graduates students to benefit from this strong intellectual community and to foster yet closer connections among scholars.
