Association for the Development and Enhancement of Women (ADEW). The Association for the Development and Enhancement of Women (ADEW) was registered with the Ministry of Social Affairs as a private, voluntary, non-governmental organization in 1987. When ADEW was founded, it was the first feminist NGO in Egypt to deal specifically with this issue. Over the past 17 years, ADEW has emerged as both an influential grassroots organization and a leading advocate for women' s rights.
Since its beginning as a micro-credit organization, ADEW has extended both its field sites and its services as it has grown. In addition to credit programs, ADEW today offers literacy programs, health services, and legal awareness seminars and operates from 15 offices in 5 different areas with a staff of 200 members.
