The FIVB Volleyball Women's Club World Championship is an international women's club volleyball competition organised by the Fédération Internationale de Volleyball (FIVB), the sport's global governing body. The competition was first contested in in Brazil. It was not held between 1995 and 2009, but since 2010, the competition has been held every year, and has been hosted by Qatar, Switzerland, the Philippines, Japan, China and Turkey. The competition was held in Zhejiang Province of China in 2018 and 2019. After the 2020 championship was cancelled due to corona virus pandemic,[1] the competition was held in Turkey in 2021.

The tournament involved six to eight teams over the years competing for the title at venues within the host nation over a period of about one week. Teams involved the winners of that year's AVC Club Volleyball Championship (Asia), African Clubs Championship (Africa), Women's South American Volleyball Club Championship (South America) and CEV Women's Champions League (Europe), the host city's team, a nominated team from North America, as well as wild card invitees.

The current champions are Turkey's Vakıfbank İstanbul, who defeated Italy's Imoco Volley Conegliano 3–2 in the final of the 2021 edition, to win their fourth title in the competition.[2] Turkish teams have been the most successful, with seven titles in total.
