Description
‘Our common purpose is the development of women leaders who commit themselves to work for change in their communities and beyond’
Imagine a world in which justice, peace, health, human dignity, freedom and care for the environment prevail. Imagine a global network of women of all ages who are leading people, government agencies, private businesses, schools, and community-based organisations to create and sustain this vision. Imagine young women in the forefront as leaders. This is the vision of the World YWCA.
Since 1855, the YWCA has been at the forefront of empowering women and girls who advocate for their rights and lead social, political, economic and civic change. Today the YWCA reaches more than 25 million women and girls in 122 countries, providing them with the space and skills to develop leadership for the benefit of entire communities. The YWCA’s purpose is to develop the leadership of women and girls around the world to achieve human rights, health, security, dignity, freedom, justice and peace for all people.
