OUR PARTNERS
Leave no voice unheard or silenced
We shouldn’t still be fighting for fundamental rights for women in Africa. SAWID stands on the frontline in the war against proverty, marginalisation and vulnerability, to create a brighter future for women of today’s generation and those to come.
What we won’t stand for
Persistent gaps in the Constitution that deliberately works against women
Inadequate relief interventions that fail to focus on self-reliance
Lack of data-driven understanding, resulting in inaccurate recommendations and strategies
SAWID empowers women to become the agents of their own development
SAWID invites South African and African women, and fellow ambassadors for the empowerment of women, to unite in diversity and take action for better future
Building SAWID's institutional capacity
Growing from strength to strength through cross-cultural, multigenerational cooperation, we can further our efforts to drive meaningful change for South African.
Inclusive dialogues with healing and training
Agency, advocacy and partnerships
