SWEC believes every woman has the right to learn, lead, and thrive. Through education, digital literacy, leadership training, and vocational programs, women gain the confidence and skills to shape the future of the Sahel region and beyond.
This initiative continues SWEC’s mission to open doors of opportunity and independence — empowering women to be catalysts for community transformation.
SWEC joined hands with Mme Fadimatou Gali and the Council of Yaoundé 2 for the Socio-Educational Challenge marking Cameroon’s 59th National Youth Day. The event brought together students who showcased their talent through debates, dance, singing, and general knowledge competitions.
This initiative celebrated the creativity and energy of youth while nurturing teamwork, confidence, and leadership — core values at the heart of SWEC’s mission.

SWEC’s Language Training Initiative empowers women and youth across the Sahel by strengthening their communication skills in English, French, and national languages such as Fulfulde and Hausa. These programs open doors to education, leadership, and employment while celebrating cultural identity.
“Language is more than a skill — it’s a bridge to opportunity, connection, and understanding.”
— Mme Pauline, Ewondo Language Instructor
