Women's Image Network, (WIN), produces The WIN Awards to thank those who advance opportunities for women by creating dimensional female media images. WIN works to level the playing field for women and girls by encouraging media artists to create dimensional female film and television images because to achieve equal rights and dignity for gender equality and women's empowerment are fundamental to our mission.
