Indian Rights for Indian Women (IRIW) was a grassroots activist collective in Canada, formed in 1967, that advocated against the gender discrimination in the Indian Act. The group's primary goal was to eradicate Section 12, paragraph 1(b) of the Indian Act, which removed the Indian status of Indigenous women who married non-Indigenous men, and prohibited them from passing status onto their children. Among others, the group was founded by Mary Two-Axe Earley, Kathleen Steinhauer and Nellie Carlso
