Women For Afrika (WFA) is a volunteer based NPO run by women for women. Our vision is to create a community of women supporting each other on their journey of healing, connection, self-discovery and empowerment. We provide education and training, as well as ongoing support circles for women.
WFA was formed in 2004 as an outreach programme of Woman Within® International, Ltd (WWIL.) Both WFA and WWIL are women-led organisations dedicated to amplifying the power and wisdom that exists within every woman.
The global network of women, founded in 1987, have journeyed deep within, connecting with their authentic voice and paving a path for others to follow. The programmes, run by 10 regions around the world, create a world where women know, embrace, and lead from this place of authenticity.
Thousands of women around the world have joined Circles where they find ongoing support and connection. In circle, women listen deeply and continually learn and grow together.
Global
Since 1987, our 11 global regions have presented hundreds of Woman Within programmes across the world. More than 16,000 women have gone through the Woman Within Weekend®, our 48-hour programme.
Transformational
Our programmes help women reconnect with the part of themselves that intuitively knows what is right for them...their ageless wisdom. From this place women make choices that transform their lives.
Sustainable
Thousands of women around the world have joined Circles where they find ongoing support and connection. In circle, women listen deeply and continually learn and grow together.
Mission
Our mission is simple: We empower women. Through our work, we create a world where women know, embrace, live & lead from their truth. We do this by inspiring women to connect with all parts of themselves & to a deep sense of their place in the world.

They can be considered our North Star: Inclusion: We are a global community of women supporting women; Respect: Every woman has her own answers & pace. We stay “One Step Behind"; Integrity: We actively serve women. We are congruent in our thoughts & actions.
Leadership & structure
Our community is guided by a Board and Leadership Circle working together to empower women in South Africa. If you have comments or questions about the mission, values and/or operation of our organisation please find the relevant person to contact here
