Title: Summary of the Faith Word In action workshop in Kinshasa
Introduction :
Faith Word In Action (FWA), a civic organization committed to the development and empowerment of young women and girls in the Democratic Republic of Congo, recently organized a workshop in Kinshasa. The objective of this event was to take stock of the activities carried out and plan future actions for the year 2023. Funded by partners such as Oxfam, FEMNET and the European Union, FWA strives to train young women leaders in their communities. Let’s go back to the main points covered during this workshop.
A summary of achievements and challenges:
For two days, workshop participants reviewed the activities carried out during the year 2022. They highlighted the successes and failures, as well as the lessons to be learned from these experiences. The aim was to assess the relevance of the results obtained and to identify the challenges facing FWA. This in-depth analysis will revitalize the work plan for 2023.
The diversity of actions carried out by FWA:
During this workshop, it was recalled that FWA is not limited only to activities related to the STITCH project, which benefits from the support of Oxfam and FEMNET. Each partner is free to carry out its own projects and to make its contribution within FWA. This diversity of actions allows the organization to touch different areas and have a broader impact on the community. Each partner had the opportunity to present their achievements, both within and outside the STITCH project, in order to foster collaboration and mutual support between FWA members.
Key partnerships for FWA’s success:
It is important to underline the crucial role of partners such as Oxfam, FEMNET and the European Union in the success of FWA’s actions. Their financial support and expertise have enabled the organization to implement development and empowerment programs for women and girls in the DRC. The discussions during the workshop highlighted the importance of these partnerships and made it possible to strengthen the links between the different actors.
Conclusion :
The workshop organized by Faith Word In action in Kinshasa was an opportunity to take stock of the activities carried out and plan future actions. By emphasizing the diversity of actions carried out by FWA and highlighting the importance of partnerships, this event helped to strengthen the impact of the organization and foster the development and empowerment of young women and girls by ground floor.
