IWDA General Appeal

International Women's Development Agency (IWDA) is an Australian not-for-profit organisation that creates positive change for women and their communities. For 25 years, our practical and rights-based projects directly address poverty and oppression in developing countries.

At International Women's Development Agency (IWDA), we believe that women are agents of change and development can only be effective and sustainable if women are active participants in all aspects of economic, social and political life.

IWDA actively works towards six program goals:

• Livelihood and economic empowerment
• Safety and security
• Social, physical and mental health
• Education
• Environmental sustainability
• Civil and political participation

When women benefit, the whole community benefits.
