WOMEN EMPOWERMENT

Despite significant strides, Liberian women continue to grapple with substantial gender-based obstacles. With only 25% of parliamentary seats held by women and a prevalence of domestic violence at 39%, the need for gender equality and women's empowerment is more critical than ever.

Our Women’s Empowerment program at BDI is designed to address and overcome these hurdles. We are committed to ensuring access to quality education for girls and women, promoting literacy, and supporting the continuation of schooling, even amidst challenges like early marriage and motherhood.

Our Women Empowerment Program Goals
