A Vibrant Feminist Voice in Western Tanzania
Empowering grassroots movements to drive social policy context and individual behavior change.
Founded in 2002, WPC addresses fundamental problems faced by women in the Kigoma region. We believe that in a discriminatory society dominated by patriarchal norms, the struggle for women’s rights must precede economic empowerment efforts.
