Women’s empowerment can be defined to promoting women’s sense of self-worth, their ability to determine their own choices, and their right to influence social change for themselves and others.
It is closely aligned with female empowerment – a fundamental Human Rights, which is a very important aspect in achieving a more peaceful and prosperous world. In Western countries, female empowerment is often associated with specific phases of the women’s rights movement in history.
This movement tends to be split into three waves, the first beginning in the 19th and early 20th century where suffrage was a key feature. The second wave of the 1960s included the sexual revolution and the role of women in society.
Our Charity Organisation W4WE is the best charities to donate to. Every little helps
Third wave feminism is often seen as beginning in the 1990s.
Women’s empowerment and promoting women’s rights have emerged as a part of a major global movement and is continuing to break new ground in recent years. Days like International Women’s Empowerment Day are also gaining momentum.
But despite a great deal of progress, women and girls continue to face discrimination and violence in every part of the world.
Women 4 Women Empowerment tries to create collaboration between the UN Global Campact and UN Women. The Women's Empowerment Principles are used to empower women in the marketplace, workplace and community.
We empower women by standing up for equality, women have helped other women speak up and empowered them. Here are some examples of prominent women who have spoken out about women’s equality
Gender equality is a basic human right, and it is also fundamental to having a peaceful, prosperous world.
But girls and women continue to face significant challenges all around the world. Women are typically underrepresented in power and decision-making roles. They receive unequal pay for equal work, and they often face legal and other barriers that affect their opportunities at work.
In the developing world, girls and women are often seen as less valuable than boys. Instead of being sent to school, they are often made to do domestic work at home or are married off for a dowry before they are adults. As many as 12 million underage girls are married every year.
While some progress is being made in various parts of the world, there is still a great deal left to be done to right the problems of gender inequality.
Empowering women is essential to the health and social development of families, communities and countries. When women are living safe, fulfilled and productive lives, they can reach their full potential, contributing their skills to the workforce and can raise happier and healthier children.
They are also able to help fuel sustainable economies and benefit societies and humanity at large.
A key part of this empowerment is through education. Girls who are educated can pursue meaningful work and contribute to their country’s economy later in life. They are also four times less likely to get married young when they have eight years of education, meaning that they and their families are healthier. That is What we do for women and girls. Empowering girls is the key to economic growth, political stability and social transformation. Help empower girls now. We are a Charity Organisation that empowers women and girls.
Marie: One last chance When 14-year-old Marie started school, there were equal numbers boys and girls. But in her Year 8 classroom, she is the only girl, surrounded by 19 boys. “I want to finish secondary school too. I want to prove that girls can do it,” Marie says, with a look of determination.
If Marie graduates primary school, she’ll be the first girl in her family with a certificate. In Krubola that Northern part of Sierra Leone , girls who complete all their education are exceptional. Due to the conflict and poverty, only 30 per cent of the children who are of school going age are currently studying. Gender inequality is also a factor, and only one in every seven girls (18 per cent) finish primary school in Krubola. But W4WE is working hard to change the narrative of education in Marie’s community.
“We’re addressing gender inequality in education through community awareness sessions with parents, but changing behaviour and customs that have lasted for generations require persistence and determination,” say Saffie a W4WE project manager working in Marie’s community. Marie hopes that one day she can change her community and that through her example more girls will be able to continue studying. Until then, she’ll continue to keep taking notes and writing tests, towards her goal of finishing her education.

From workplaces and schools to homes and communities, women Gender equality underpins all of Women 4 Women's work – and there are many great activities you can get involved in to support the rights of women in Southeast communities (Southwark) and Waterloo Sierra Leone.

When women and girls are supported, they gain opportunities to speak up for their rights, and also to advocate for their communities. They are also able to rise in social standing, and they can feed this into future generations. This means women’s organisations, women’s empowerment policies and women’s charities can gain momentum and contribute to a stronger world. .
