Association Femmes Africaines Francophones (AFAF BC)

Published purpose

Through this 32-month project, the Association Femmes Africaines Francophones will build its capacity to advance women’s equality. Funding will allow the organization to equip itself with the tools needed to create, stabilize, and strengthen a healthy, inclusive, and equitable work environment. The Association Femmes Africaines Francophones will strengthen its governance by establishing by-laws and policies. Various training programs will help provide a better understanding of managing a non-profit organization and better meet the needs of the African Francophone women’s community. The project will include structuring the accountability framework and mobilizing resources. The project will also include improving the organization’s digital capacity; evaluating and outlining the development of policies, toolkits, and guides; and creating a strategic plan. With the Supplemental funds and extension provided in early 2026, the Association Femmes Africaines Francophones will implement a detailed operational plan, a strategy to mobilize new partners, a digital training platform, a volunteer recruitment plan, and a plan to obtain charitable status. Through this, they will further advance Gender Equality.
