Empowering rural women, one step at a time
Since 2012, women around the world have come together on or around 29 April to celebrate the Associated Country Women of the World, raising funds and awareness in support of rural women globally.
Local events and activities are held to spread joy while raising donations for our work, supporting grassroots development projects, advocacy, education, and awareness-raising efforts.
