Maasai Women`s Education with MWEDO: My Struggle, My Success

Founded by and for Maasai women, MWEDO promotes the well-being, basic rights and supporting efforts that empower Maasai women within their cultural traditions. We value the strengths and dignity of women and affirm their right to benefit both economically and socially through educational rights.

MWEDO has two main programs; education and health, and three special projects; household economic empowerment, human rights and Advocacy and culture and tradition. The organization is operational in 4 districts of Arusha and Manyara region where MWEDO has gained strong membership strength in the four districts of Kiteto, Simanjiro, Monduli and Longido.
