At SAFWGS, we believe that true progress begins when women and girls participate in shaping the decisions that affect their lives. Through advocacy and civic engagement, we ensure that women and girls have the knowledge, confidence, and opportunities to influence policy and drive positive change in their communities.
We work at both policy and grassroots levels to amplify voices, champion gender equality, and build pathways for women and girls into leadership.
Our flagship fellowship program developing young female leaders. Fellows gain knowledge of governance, civic processes, and leadership skills, and have the opportunity to observe legislative sessions and draft policy briefs, motions, and bills addressing women and girls' issues.
We believe true change includes men and boys. This initiative engages young men to understand gender equality, respect women's rights, and become allies in creating safer communities.
Comprehensive civic literacy training preparing women and girls to participate meaningfully in democratic processes, understand their rights, and engage in policy discussions.
