Cuso International Launches Renewed Women’s Voice and Leadership Project in Tanzania to Empower Women and Youth
News
March 11, 2025, Ottawa, Canada — Cuso International is proud to announce the official launch of its RWVL (Renewed Women’s Voice and Leadership) Tanzania project, dedicated to promoting the rights, empowerment, and inclusion of women, young women, and other equity-deserving groups across Tanzania.
The RWVL Tanzania initiative aims to strengthen the capacities of local organizations and community leaders to advocate for gender equity, economic independence, and social justice. At its core, this 5 year project seeks to build resilient communities by supporting equitable opportunities, leadership development, and meaningful participation in decision-making processes.
This initiative aligns closely with Canada’s recent announcement of significant international assistance aimed at advancing gender equity globally. On March 8, 2025, Canada’s government reiterated its commitment by announcing funding of over $193 million for 20 projects worldwide, reflecting a long-standing dedication to protecting and empowering women and girls in all their diversity.
Amid growing global disruptions, empowering women and youth is critical to building sustainable, equitable societies. Cuso’s RWVL Tanzania project is an essential part of this broader global effort.
