ABOUT

WHO WE HELP

WAW supports women survivors of conflict in Northern Uganda to recover by providing business skills enhancement and vocational training. This allows female survivors to start and run small businesses, increase earnings, support their families and engage actively in civic processes that will, in the long run, address structural violence problems.

 

In other words, creating livelihood opportunities for severely disadvantaged women, such as these survivors of post conflict northern Uganda, can powerfully transform the economic, social and political lives of not just these women but also the generations that will come after them.

 

Survivors in Action  

There are over 3,000 female survivors of LRA conflict between 25 and 45 years old in Northern Uganda; 95% are single mothers. 

Their children, born in captivity, now range from 12-25 years old; the women also have other children born after the conflict.

 

WAW leadership intends to establish the Center for Women and Girls empowerment. 

WAW leadership has a unique position, having both survived abduction and gained a place in the society that allows them to target these survivors for aide.
