The Sisterhood Is Global Institute (SIGI) is an international non-governmental organization. For almost three decades, SIGI has been a consultant to the United Nations.

SIGI was founded in 1984 by Robin Morgan and Simone de Beauvoir.[1][2] A spinoff of "Sisterhood Is Global", SIGI was the "first international feminist think tank".[3]
