Afghan Women Strong
Women for Afghan Women (WAW) works tirelessly to provide humanitarian aid and support services to vulnerable Afghan women, children, and families, including internally-displaced persons and families.
Working with strategic partners and local stakeholders, WAW’s ultimate goal in Afghanistan is to support vulnerable populations, particularly women and girls, and transform norms of violence and oppression into that of peace and equality.
WAW’s Work in Afghanistan
WAW’s success in Afghanistan has been rooted in its grassroots approach in the development and implementation of its programs. The organization hires locally and uses local knowledge and a deep understanding of and sensitivity to local culture, traditions, customs, and challenges to inform its programming.
Due to the current security situation in Afghanistan, and to protect staff working on the ground there, we are providing information on WAW’s current operations in Afghanistan by direct request only.
For further information about our work in Afghanistan, we ask you to please contact WAW directly at office@womenforafghanwomen.org.
