The PEI Advisory Council on the Status of Women (PEIACSW) is an independent government-appointed council in Charlottetown, Canada, dedicated to working for gender equality for all islanders. Comprised of nine council members representing regional diversity, the council advises the government on achieving equality in legislation, policies, and programs.
PEIACSW promotes changes of attitude within the Prince Edward Island community through special programs, bursaries, and events such as International Women's Day and Women's History Month. The council also conducts policy research, issues annual reports, and organizes the Purple Ribbon Campaign to raise awareness about family violence prevention.
