Continental Vision
Who We Are
A continental movement, born of African women, building a better Africa.
Pan African Women Projects is a non-profit, non-governmental, non-religious and non-political organization of African women across the continent and in the Diaspora — together with friends of Africa.
PAWP was born from a deep study of the dehumanizing plights faced by African women, particularly in rural communities — the untapped potential, the traditional and economic handicaps, and the inattention of governments to women, children and persons with disability.
"To build developmental projects, mobilize, empower, and position African women as central leaders in achieving sustainable and inclusive governance."
