The FAWE Strategic Plan
2024-2028 sets a bold vision for promoting gender equality and advancing girls’ and women’s empowerment through education across Africa.
We envision a just and inclusive society where all African girls and women realize their full potential. Achieving this vision requires dismantling systemic barriers to education and championing equal opportunities through innovative, evidence-based, and collaborative approaches.
The strategic plan prioritizes advocacy, research, partnerships, and institutional strengthening as key levers for sustainable impact. Our three strategic objectives are:
Strategic Objective 1: Enhance the provision of and access to quality education and training opportunities for girls and women in Africa.
Strategic Objective 2: Promote the generation and utilization of research evidence to inform gender-responsive education policy and practice.
Strategic Objective 3: Strengthen institutional capacity and operational effectiveness across the FAWE network.
Through this strategy, FAWE reaffirms its leadership in shaping inclusive education systems and empowering the next generation of African girls and women.
Our Approach
FAWE follows a comprehensive and holistic approach to promoting
gender equality, girls’ education, and women’s empowerment in Africa. The key elements of FAWE’s approach are deliberately designed and appropriate to influence policy reform and positive
