Women Rights Initiative (WORI) is an action oriented women’s organization that was founded in 2007 by three young women to respond and arise to the challenges of human and women’s rights, fighting poverty, creating awareness on Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights, capacity building in leadership and governance at grass root levels.
The organization’s main aim is to enhance the capacity of women and support their efforts towards their development and health. The organization has a special interest in the plight of women and youths, as they are most susceptible to psychological, physical, social and economical vulnerability.
