HOW WE WORK
We create spaces for feminist conversations and open new frontiers for AGYW engagement in policy processes. We’ve evolved from information sharing and networking to becoming a hub where AGYW can access information and organize for action depending on what their call for advocacy is. We’ve also broadened our scope of analysis and action to include organizational support for grassroots feminist groups and movements led by young feminists and girl-led initiatives.
