Description
WomenStrong International finds, funds, strengthens, and shares women-driven solutions that will transform lives in urban communities. Our partner organizations start by listening to women, who know best what they need in order to thrive. We bring them together into a Learning Lab, to develop, test, sharpen, and disseminate solutions to some of the challenges faced by the women and girls in their communities. Through our collective learning and sharing, WomenStrong is building a global community of organizations better equipped to advance the rights and wellbeing of women and girls.
