The IGDS in collaboration with UN Women Jamaica proposes to host a symposium in celebration of International Women’s Day 2025 under the global theme, “For ALL Women and Girls: Rights. Equality. Empowerment.” The symposium will showcase the recent research done by key entities on women and girls as well as feature a panel discussion on the state of research on women in Jamaica. The symposium aims to inspire and equip persons with knowledge of key information on the state of Jamaican women and girls as well as offer resources and information to empower young women.
Our 7 faculties and 12 professional schools offer more than 200 programmes to some 18,000 graduate, undergraduate and continuing studies students.
The UWI, Mona ranks first in Jamaica among accredited tertiary-level programmes. In 2012, the University was again one of Jamaica’s Top 100 Employers.
