Mission Statement
CAFWA was established in 2006 with the mission of working in partnership with community-based groups to improve the lives of women in conflict and post-conflict areas of Africa. Recognizing women as powerful agents of change in communities around the world, CAFWA is rooted in the conviction that women should be active stakeholders in defining their own development strategies. We help women rebuild their lives with a holistic approach that includes micro finance, education, agricultural sustainability and food security.
