The first IUPAP International Conference on Women in Physics was successfully held in Paris, France, in March 2002; it served as an initial focal point for ongoing activities to implement strategies developed there. Along with the second IUPAP International Conference on Women in Physics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in May 2005, the third Conference is dedicated to providing an opportunity to share the scientific accomplishments of participants as well as analyzing international progress in promoting women in physics. ICWIP 2008 will bring the top decision-makers and the practitioners interested in women-in-physics agenda, thereby helping the physics community to promote the women-in-physics activities.

ICWIP 2008 will consist of six plenary talks, workshops, and poster presentations. The plenary talks, delivered by prominent women physicists, will cover recent major achievements in each of six areas of physics research
