About us
The African Women Dignity Foundation (AWDF) is dedicated to empowering women across Africa by providing resources, support, and advocacy. African Women Dignity Foundation (AWDF) is a non-government organization (NGO) based in Kasese district of Uganda. AWDF is working on a couple of projects to assist women in rural areas. We strive to uplift the voices of women and build a community that fosters dignity and respect.
Our Mission
Our mission is to empower women in Africa through education, advocacy, and community support. We aim to provide resources that help women realize their potential and contribute positively to their communities.
Our Vision
We envision a world where every woman in Africa has the opportunity to thrive, with access to education, healthcare, and economic resources that allow her to live with dignity and respect.
Activities:
• Training women and girls in vegetable growing and processing.
• Training women in re-usable sanitary pads making.
• Training women in embroidery.
• HIV/AIDS sensitization etc
Projects:
The projects are designed to help women gain skills they can use to thrive and become successful. Two of AWDF’s current projects are the Women’s Learning Centre and Environmental Conservation Project. Through these projects, AWDF gives women the opportunity to learn and grow in areas that would be beneficial to their lives. The skills learned give women the foundation to build a career of their own
• Established in 2013, the Women’s Learning Centre is focused on equipping women with skills in tailoring and knitting, basic computer skills, craft making, and much more. To date, the centre has trained 62 women.
• The Environmental Conservation Project involves and trains women in nature and environmental management. Each woman trains as a Climate Change Agent and, in order to implement this, each woman is given a total of 20 trees to plant (10 fruit and 10 non-fruit). To date, 226 women in Kasese district have participated, and over 2,000 trees have been distributed and planted.
