CAMFED Switzerland Circle of Friends

Welcome! Thank you for believing in the power of girls’ education and young women’s leadership. Here is a collection of resources for our champions in Switzerland. Get involved today to support the girls across Africa to learn, thrive and become change makers in their communities.

Why girls’ education?

Education is a fundamental right, and a matter of justice. Girls’ education and women’s leadership is also key to tackling our most pressing global challenges.

CAMFED’s Mission

CAMFED is a pan-African, grassroots-led movement tackling poverty, inequality and injustice through girls’ education and women’s leadership. Our focus is on vulnerable girls and young women in rural areas of Africa. This is where girls face acute disadvantage, and where unlocking their power will have a transformative impact.

CAMFED’s Vision

We envision a world in which every child is educated, protected, respected and valued, and grows up to turn the tide of poverty.
