Women for Women International serves the most marginalized women in conflict-affected countries and helps them move from isolation and poverty to self-sufficiency and empowerment. The Stronger Women Stronger Nations program, a gendered graduation approach, focuses on building women’s knowledge, skills and resources in four key domains: earning and saving money, health and well-being, rights and decision-making.

From 2018 to 2021, Women for Women International conducted a randomized controlled trial in partnership with researchers from Tufts University to evaluate the addition of VSLAs and group mentorship to our bundled approach in Plateau and Bauchi States in Nigeria. Please join us for a webinar to present the findings of this research, contextualize the findings in global evidence on women’s economic empowerment, and share reflections and recommendations for future programming. This webinar will be relevant for practitioners, researchers, donors, and government ministries with a focus on gender and poverty alleviation.
