Empowering Women, Inspiring Change

Pour Femme envisions a world where women and girls, especially refugees and marginalized communities, lead safe, healthy, and empowered lives.

At Pour Femme, we are a community of dedicated changemakers with a shared mission: to empower women and girls affected by conflict, displacement, and marginalization to lead safe, healthy, and independent lives.

Since our founding in 2011, we have stayed true to our feminist principles and core values of dignity, inclusivity, and sustainability. Our work is built on the belief that real change happens when women are empowered to become leaders and advocates within their own communities

Why Women and Girls

Empowering women and girls is at the heart of Pour Femme’s mission. In refugee camps and conflict-affected communities across Uganda, women and girls face extreme challenges that threaten their safety, health, and futures. Many arrive as survivors of gender-based violence, only to find themselves vulnerable again in overcrowded camps or impoverished urban areas. Our goal is simple but transformative: to provide them with the tools, skills, and support to rebuild, recover, and rise above these challenges. When women and girls thrive, their families and communities grow stronger, more resilient, and more peaceful.
