Sharing new ideas and challenges with our Ethiopian partners

Breaking the cycle of violence

This International Women’s Day, let’s empower even more women to challenge violence and make sure that another generation of girls aren’t subjected to these damaging practices.

“AWSAD rescued me from the black, frightening pit that was my life”

“AWSAD provided me with vocational skills. During my stay there, I trained in food preparation and was able to find a job and leave the safe house after six months to start a life of my own with my baby daughter.”
