Throughout the world today, women and children experience the greatest impact of poverty, violence, environmental degradation, and social injustice. The establishment of a healthy, harmonious society can only be achieved by attending to their all-round wellbeing and development. WWD-F creates dynamic partnerships with projects that enable women and girls to positively transform their lives and the communities they serve. The foundation supports programs that ensure economic self-sufficiency, social equality and sustainable development, by providing effective technical assistance, targeted funding and by creating model healthcare and educational programs

Objectives

WWD-F realizes that the development of women and their communities requires a comprehensive and multi-faceted approach that addresses both personal and collective challenges. That is why we support projects that:

• Ensure the provision of basic necessities through health, education, and economic development initiatives

• Support holistic programs which encourage women on the path of self discovery in order to develop their physical, mental, and spiritual potentials

• Raise women and girls consciousness about their human, social, and political rights and promote advocacy and social activism through educational workshops and strategies for social change

• Encourage an attitude of collaboration and cooperation by building partnerships with all types of non-profit and governmental organizations

• Respect the interdependence of all life forms and the environment in order to develop sustainable solutions for our social and economic problems

“One's life has value so long as one attributes value to the life of others, by means of love, friendship, indignation and compassion.”
