Women For Women International

Media, communications and outreach - the media, communications, and outreach program cultivate relationships with allied organizations, partners, and media outlets to raise awareness about the critical development needs of marginalized women survivors of war and conflict and to bring attention to their resilience and the important progress and impact of our training programs. The program employs outreach strategies to increase awareness and educate audiences about key issues including the critical role social empowerment plays in advancing women's economic and political empowerment around the globe. The program's public education and outreach efforts seek to build support and awareness for the work through a variety of strategic activities including: supporting executive communications, initiating engagement campaigns on social media, publishing monthly digital newsletters, and convening special events and meetings. In addition, the program produces materials and publishes reports that provide updates and in-depth analysis on the opportunities and strategies for increasing positive outcomes for women. The publications include: annual reports, country briefs, and issue papers, in addition to digital updates on the website. Through online, offline, and engagement activities, the program strives to inform and educate the public and current supporters about the important development gains and progress that can be attained by investing in women. Engaging program participants and graduates to share their stories, the program brings inspiring evidence and powerful messages from women empowered to improve their lives, their families, and their communities. Collectively, the program's efforts seek to underscore the important role of holistic training programs, increase support for international development approaches that serve women, and increase awareness about the need to adopt policies that empower women in the rebuilding of countries and regions impacted by war and conflict.
