FAWESWA

FAWESWA (Forum for African Women Educationalists Swaziland Chapter) is a non-governmental organization based in Eswatini that focuses on promoting gender equality in education and improving health outcomes for women and girls. The organization is a key partner in the Bristol Myers Squibb Foundation's "Secure the Future" initiative, where it works to raise awareness and provide education on HIV, tuberculosis, and female cancers such as cervical and breast cancer. Through collaborations with international foundations and local health networks, FAWESWA implements programs aimed at early detection, prevention, and management of these diseases among adolescent girls and young women. Its activities include school-based health education, community outreach, and advocacy for gender-responsive policies in science and technology. The organization also supports the "girl child" by providing scholarships and educational resources to disadvantaged students.
