Women for Women International

Women for Women International works with women survivors of war and conflict. Through in-depth assessments, we find women experiencing intersecting vulnerabilities in fragile and conflict-affected contexts and then meet them where they are.  When conflict is over, the world’s attention moves on —but women are left without basic resources like food, water, and safety in communities that put their needs and voice last. Using a gendered graduation approach, we invest in women’s skills, connections, and resources to rebuild their families and communities together.

Through our Stronger Women Stronger Nations Program, Men’s Engagement Program, Change Agent community advocacy Program, and Conflict Response Fund, Women for Women International enables positive change for women at the individual level, household level, and community level in conflict-affected settings. Our policy and advocacy work, including our engagement with networks and coalitions, seeks to create change along two dimensions – 1) social norms and 2) policy, laws, services and processes – to strengthen the enabling environment for all women determine the course of their lives & reach their full potential.
