About Us
The Alliance For Women and Girls (AFWAG) is the connective tissue of Africa’s gender equity ecosystem.
We work alongside grassroots leaders, fortify organisations’ core systems, and connect them into networks powerful enough to sustain themselves. Through leadership development, organisational strengthening, and network connectivity, we shift power and legitimacy to those closest to the problems, creating conditions for grassroots organisations across Africa to share intelligence, build durability, and amplify each other’s impact.
This connection also enables us to coordinate member organisations to deliver programmes at scale, co-designed with their expertise, led by them, and rooted in their communities.
Our Work
Leadership Development
We walk alongside leaders as partners in their unique journeys, co-creating the conditions for them to drive the change they already envision for their communities.
Weave Collaborative Networks
We create the conditions for leaders to find each other, learn from each other, and move together, connecting them to peers, resources, platforms and ecosystem partners. And when shared priorities demand it, coordinating the network to design and deliver solutions collectively.
Deepen Organisational Resilience
We work with organisations to build the foundations that make their impact last, co-designing the governance, financial systems, and strategic capacity that allows them to endure, grow and lead on their own terms.
