The Mentoring and Empowerment Programme for Young Women (MEMPROW)is a feminist organisation that brings together girls and young women (14-29) from across the African region and works to provide the skills and knowledge that they need to become successful, confident and self-reliant individuals.
MEMPROW’s feminist agenda is to shift negative patriarchal mind-sets; empower and give young women ‘voice’ and agency to challenge and transform patriarchy as the structural cause of violence, exclusion and discrimination against women.
The overall objective of MEMPROW is to develop capacity of young women to engage more actively and effectively in the protection of women’s rights and personal integrity; and take a lead in the transformation of patriarchal environments that sustain discrimination, oppression and gender inequalities.
