LET GIRLS BE GIRLS
African Women's Research Initiative for Social Empowerment
African Women's R.I.S.E. is a non-profit organization based in the United States. The organization uses education, research, publication, advocacy, and capacity-building as tools to address and combat pressing social issues that impede the success of disadvantaged girls in rural Africa. We prioritize research and publication initiatives that raise awareness and promote the rights and social empowerment of girls to engender positive changes for future generations of women in Africa.
We strive to create lasting change and empower the next generation of women through knowledge generation, building the capacity of vulnerable girls through scholarships and combating child exploitation.
Our Mission
To advance women in Africa by empowering girls through education, advocacy, and leadership development, building their capacity to champion their rights and well-being for generations to come.
Our Vision
An African society where equity is reality: women and girls empowered, gender-based violence eliminated, and every child protected from exploitation and free to flourish.
