🤝 JOINING FORCES FOR WOMEN’S RIGHTS, PEACE AND EMPOWERMENT
Women’s Hope Association (WHA), WORLD FUTURE ACTIVE , and the Association des Femmes Éveillées pour le Développement et le Leadership (AFEDL) came together to explore a collaborative approach aimed at advancing and protecting the rights of women and girls in Burundi.
The meeting provided an opportunity for the three organizations to discuss potential areas of cooperation and explore the development of a joint initiative focused on peacebuilding, women’s economic empowerment, and the meaningful inclusion and participation of women and girls, particularly in crisis and conflict-affected contexts.
Through this collaboration, WHA, WFA, and AFEDL aim to combine their experience, expertise, and capacities to help create an enabling environment where women and girls are fully recognized and supported as agents of peace, resilience, leadership, and sustainable development.
This initial consultation marks an important step toward building a strong partnership and translating shared commitments into concrete actions that benefit women, girls, and communities across Burundi.
