Our partnership with WANEP and ECOWAS seeks to empower women at local and national levels as critical stakeholders in governance and political transitions in Mali, Cote d’Ivoire, Niger and Burkina Faso. This initiative aims to improve capacity for existing and emerging women leaders including young/marginalized women, accelerate the implementation of legislation on gender equality in leadership and elections, and sustain peace and violence prevention in electoral processes.
