Girls educated with CAMFED support go on to join Africa’s largest and fastest-growing network of young women activists. They are our leaders.
We are led by young women with a shared background of exclusion, who are stepping up for education and equity and multiplying the investment in their education.
CAMFED’s Mission
CAMFED is a pan-African, grassroots-led movement tackling poverty, inequality and injustice through girls’ education and women’s leadership. Our focus is on vulnerable girls and young women in rural areas of Africa. This is where girls face acute disadvantage, and where unlocking their power will have a transformative impact.
CAMFED’s Vision
We envision a world in which every child is educated, protected, respected and valued, and grows up to turn the tide of poverty.
CAMFED’s Model of Accountability
We are accountable first and foremost to each individual girl we serve. We see the world from her perspective, and dismantle the social and financial barriers that keep her from developing her full potential.
