Mission

We imagine a world where girls are healthy, educated, and in control of their own destiny - free from violence, disease, and limitations based on gender. WISER works with girls to transcend poverty, HIV/AIDS, and gender-based violence. We do this by empowering young women to drive change through education and community programs.
