2008 African Women and Water Training

the African Women and Water Program. This is an annual  5-day gathering that provides thirty African women with the tools to implement a water service project from start to finish.  The conference design is holistic, in that women  not only share proven and appropriate water technologies, but they share valuable organizational skills and strategies to fully step into leadership roles in addressing their communities’ water needs.  Local African women who have launched successful projects relating to water resources and community organizing, are both the facilitators and trainers of the conference. The first program will be held this March, 2008 in East Africa. The following programs will be held in West and South Africa respectively.
