4 - POINT AGENDA

LIFTING WOMEN OUT OF POVERTY

We are committed to ensuring that no woman is a victim of poverty. We create platforms that enhance financial literacy and seek funding opportunities for women initiatives and skill acquisition programmes. this is borne out of the belief that an empowered woman empowers communities.

EDUCATING WOMEN TO SAY NO TO ALL FORMS OF ABUSE

Abuse is a common feature in an androcentric society like ours. This abuse manifests in violent and subtle forms like rape, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, etc. When a woman is abused, her capacity to excel is stunted. Recognizing that abuse is a growth impedance, WSWN seeks to educate society about the heinous culture of abuse and collaborate with policy makers to ensure abuse is relegated to an historical past. In appreciation of the behavioural change function of the media, we harness media platforms to push to the fore of public consciousness, abuse related issues.

PROMOTING GENDER EQUALITY
Gender equality is a fundamental human right and necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world. Gender inequalities increase the risk of violence by men against women and inhibit the ability of those affected to seek protection. We believe Gender equality is a critical part of violence prevention and therefore advocate for women to live in a safe and equal society, have equal access to power, resources and opportunities and be treated with dignity, respect and fairness. We are working with communities, schools, workplaces, religious institutions, businesses, and organisations to build a culture of respect and fairness.
GIVING WOMEN A VOICE

The marginalisation of women and the girl child is an age long problem. To the detriment of society, women lack the agency in different spheres. At women supporting women network, we seek to strengthen the voices of the marginalised and vulnerable by educating and empowering the women and the girl child to have a voice in issues relating to their ontic wellbeing.
