AfWID is an inclusive annual platform of dialogue that seeks to unite African women from all walks of life, with a bias towards women who live in under-resourced rural areas, under one roof to deliberate on issues of continental importance, with its location in South Africa. This platform is not representative of any organisation or political opinion. Women speak in their own voices according to their own perspectives and personal experiences. The objectives of AWID are to: Contribute towards attaining a united voice of African women on continental issues; Vitalise, inspire and broaden the vision of African women, under a concrete common development agenda; Identify current and evolving systemic barriers, including practices and norms, which work against the implementation of the women’s, and development agenda; Facilitate the review of undergirding systems, structures and practices, which hinder the advancement of African women. This includes the review of policies, strategies and programmes, on a national and continental level; Influence community, national and continental structures (public, private, civil society) aimed at empowering African women; and Strengthen national, regional and continental networks of African women organisations.
