Her Initiative is a young women led nonprofit organization that works to reframes the value of girls and shapes the new norms that break the cycle of poverty and create financial resilience among adolescent girls and young women in Tanzania in order to achieve gender equality and inclusive economic growth.
Most problems that affect young women and girls are in one way or the other influenced by poverty and is amplified by financial dependence. Her Initiative creates a ‘new normal’ for girls; a world in which girls are not held back from reaching their full potential, either by themselves, their families, their communities or by their financial status.
