The WANCHE Vision WANCHE envisions a more just society built on the shared talents of all people. Therefore, we are dedicated to the advancement of women as leaders in society and particularly within higher education. Because our colleges and universities are places of self-discovery for those who will shape the future, they are also critical arenas for the presence of women in leadership roles. WANCHE is committed to developing a system of higher learning in which men and women have an opportunity to share equally in the management of our institutions, to create new approaches to learning, and to be partners in forming the educational enterprise of the 21st century.
