The World We Want for Women (4W) is an initiative of the Amazons Watch Magazine aimed at collating and documenting a compendium of short stories from young girls and women aged 9-35, about their vision of the world they want for women. Consequently, strategies to effectively articulate and transition the vision embedded in these stories into reality will be developed and implemented by engaging multi-stakeholders with similar interests across the globe.
The 4W is targeted at girls and young women with lofty ambitions and a dream for the future of women. It is a viable platform for contributing and orchestrating the future of women in the coming decades.
It is an initiative that provides an opportunity for girls’ voices and narrative on the kind of world they want to see and participate in, to be heard around the world and become a reference point for global discussions on how to work towards a future where women can thrive without stereotypical limitations.
