A better world is possible. Empowered women will make it happen.

About us

Empowering women around the world through entrepreneurship training. Our mission is to empower women in developing countries to fight poverty and build better lives by capitalizing on their existing skills and cultural assets. In a developing context, women are increasingly being recognized as engines of meaningful change--they prioritize education, health, nutrition and community wellbeing. Empowered and financially independent, they become active influencers in their communities and have a positive impact on their own lives as well of those of their families, communities and even countries. AWE works with women farming sustainably to provide them with the support they need to enhance their capacity to develop equitable and sustainable products and relations with local and global markets. Increasingly, women entrepreneurs in other spheres, such as food and food transformation, retail and other small businesses are seeking support as they build their capacity to generate sustainable livelihoods. Formerly Artistri Sud.

  • 🌟Happy New Year! 🌟 As we step into 2025, we take a moment to reflect on the profound impact of AWE training in Vietnam. In 2024, we concluded our five-year journey in the country, marking the successful wrap-up of our work since 2018. Over these five years, we have witnessed transformational change in the lives of women in Vietnam. From significant increases in income and empowered leadership to business expansion, our graduates have created transformative change for their families and communities. In our latest blog, we share the remarkable outcomes of our 5 years in Vietnam and how AWE’s training has helped women take control of their futures, build confidence, and become leaders in their homes and communities. 💪🌱 In the new year, AWE remains committed to empowerment, growth, and meaningful change. 🙌 Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/gt72P-4a

L'histoire de May est un exemple puissant de la façon dont l'autonomisation des femmes peut créer un changement durable, non seulement dans leur propre vie, mais aussi dans les communautés qu'elles touchent. Votre soutien permet de fournir à des femmes comme May les outils dont elles ont besoin pour réussir. En cette période de fêtes, nous vous invitons à vous joindre à nous pour soutenir des participantes comme May. Votre don nous aidera à 💡Donner aux femmes les moyens de créer des entreprises prospères 🤝 Fournir des opportunités de mentorat pour favoriser la croissance et le leadership 🏠Améliorer les conditions de vie, réduire la pauvreté et financer l'éducation des femmes dans le monde.
