Overview
As an African research institution, ICRW Africa (International Center for Research on Women Africa Regional Office) generates evidence on women's economic and reproductive empowerment and provides solutions to intersectional vulnerabilities and inequities that diminish women's and girls' opportunities. Over the next few years, ICRW Africa aims to strengthen its capacity to design, lead, and disseminate policy-relevant research in East Africa, focusing on workplace equity, youth development, and sexual and reproductive health and rights. This core support grant will enable ICRW Africa to deepen these focal areas, including sustained, meaningful engagement with policy actors, and enhance its institutional capacity.
