ABOUT US

Women Lead Movement is a South African-based Non-Profit Organisation established in 2017. We promote and advocate for gender equality (especially at grassroots level) as well as an active and participatory citizenry, which are both pivotal for the achievement of good governance, sustainable development, social justice and transformation. Our work speaks to the aspirations of the South African National Development Plan Vision 2030, South African Constitution of 1996, United Nations Sustainable Development Goals 5, 10 and 16, United Nations Convention on the Elimination of all forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) and AU Strategy on Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment. Women Lead Movement are actively involved in initiating and organising multiple community engagements and events in the form of dialogues, capacity building workshops, outreach programmes, campaigns and advocacy pertaining to human rights, gender equality, gender-based violence, democracy, community development, grassroots activism and personal and leadership development with the aim to ensure that local communities become places where an active, informed and participatory citizenry thrives.
