The Global Women's Water Initiative is training and building a movement of local women water experts to address the issue that affects them the most: WATER. GWWI transforms women from water bearers to water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) technicians, trainers and entrepreneurs equipping them with the requisite tools to lead sustainable locally-led WASH projects in their communities. The GWWI Women and Water Training Programs equip grassroots women with the skills and tools to bring sustainable water solutions to tackle the health and violence risks, and lost income and educational opportunities associated with the lack of safe water and sanitation in their own communities. GWWI offers a multi-year training to transform women from passive recipients of failed water projects to WASH (Water, Sanitation and Hygiene) providers. Women become......TECHNICIANS...TRAINERS...and SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSGWWI strengthens women's leadership in the WASH sector - whether at the village, government or NGO level. Women are taking the lead bringing demand-driven income-generating services to solve their local water crises - improving community health, building simple technologies and MAKING MONEY!
