GOALS OF THE YOUNG FEMINIST IN ACTION PROGRAMME
An initiative emerged after the AWID’s Conference aim to create specific actions at an individual, organizational, community as well as at national level a shared understanding of the key factors driving economic hardships and HIV and AIDS epidemic so as to minimize hunger and the effect of the AIDS epidemic respectively.

To create a vision of a successful future young feminist group that will inspire people from different sectors to commit to fighting and voicing out discrimination, abuse, sexual violence, and oppression against women.

To identify key actions required to align, intensify and broaden efforts countrywide so as to maximize synergies and more effectively use of the movement to educate more women about their rights, talents, skills and passion.

To influence policies and agendas at different levels to serve as an intervention to realize entrepreneurship development for the benefit of underserved women within marginalized communities.

As young feminist leaders, in everything they do, it will be important to constantly seek out opportunities to work collaboratively with different stakeholders to achieve a vision/goal that is culturally appropriate in issues affecting women.

To acknowledge and inspire respect within their communities in which they work and understand how the community recognizes and responds to issues such as gender, race, religion, culture and politics.

To make a real difference, the group will build concerted, integrated and coordinated efforts with other women and groups across the globe to instill economic freedom for every woman using the medium of communication, media and forums.

We believe that the tutorage, guidance, expertise, and encouragement gained from fine and great women from the AWID forum have intensified and fortified whatever skills and abilities we posses now to strengthen this movement.
In addition, we plan to represent the voice of this movement at any international conferences.
