The U.S. government website for the International Women of Courage Award is down. There are probably quite a few articles that link to this page, as it helps establish notability for many women in the Global South.
The award was started by Condoleezza Rice in 2007 when she served as U.S. Secretary of State under Republican president George W. Bush.

Please bear in mind that many US government websites are routinely rebuilt at the time of a transition of the presidency and/or cabinet level change. This is not new or unusual, although the last time there was a transition was 8 years ago and the websites weren't nearly as built-up. They are, however, required, to archive all pages, so they should be somewhere - not necessarily easy to find, but somewhere within the US government sites.

It looks like the main page for the International Women of Courage Award has been moved to https://www.state.gov/s/gwi/iwoc/index.htm. Unfortunately, it seems to no longer have any actual information.
I've never heard of a requirement for the U.S. government to archive all of its web pages, nor have I ever seen any official archives of federal government sites other than whitehouse.gov (which is archived by the National Archives as part of the official Presidential Record). This seems like a dubious claim to me, but I would be very happy to be wrong (as such archives would be incredibly useful to Wikipedia).

It appears that the award has had its own web presence independent of the State Department since March 2016: http://web.archive.org/web/20160304031707/http://www.awiu.org/international-...
Perhaps in inquiry to the AIWU board of directors or personnel could clarify the connection with the State Department, and unearth any information that has been lost from the State Department web site?

I have located the apparently official archived copies of this page at https://2009-2017.state.gov/s/gwi/iwoc/index.htm It appears to be complete.
The most recent snapshot from archive.is unfortunately is from 2011, so a lot missing there.
There is a more current snapshot at Internet Archive link https://web.archive.org/web/20160330043716/http://www.state.gov/s/gwi/progra... which I added to one of the articles, but there are more dead links just on that page.
There is an index of State dept. archive websites here, looks like it goes by administration: https://www.state.gov/misc/112234.htm The search term I used was "u.s. department of state archive" so I suppose you could search for each department separately. There was a similar discussion about whitehouse.gov on enwiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(miscellaneous)/Archive...
Seems like a bot might be useful here.
