Action for Rural Women's Empowerment

Education and Lifelong Learning

ARUWE aims to reduce gender disparities in education for girls and women living in vulnerable situations through the following actions:

Improving access to education for girls

We focus on changing community attitudes and mindsets towards girls education, build and upgrade WASH and classroom facilities that are disability and gender sensitive, support menstrual hygiene management and non-violent and inclusive learning environment for all pupils in school.

Increasing access to literacy, entrepreneurship, life skills and vocational training for marginalized girls

We enhance employability and job creation opportunities for women and girls through skills development, apprenticeship, access to finance, tools and mentorship.

Advocating for gender responsive education policies
