Make Every Woman Count

Established in 2010, Make Every Woman Count (MEWC) is a women’s rights organisation that emerged from the launch of the African Women's Decade 2010-2020. Our primary objective was to monitor and track the progress of women's rights across the continent throughout this Decade. By gathering and documenting information on women's rights, MEWC aimed to raise awareness, stimulate policy change, and hold institutions accountable for their actions during the Decade. The knowledge we generate is a valuable resource to inform policies, advocacy, programs, and initiatives promoting gender equality. We aim to build a robust evidence base through our knowledge production and documentation, strengthening advocacy efforts and ensuring that decision-makers are held accountable.
