Femme Action - Action Woman promotes, within the framework of a gender, participatory, citizenship and solidarity approach, girls and women to take the vision of their own future through initiatives rooted in their daily living. Their main objective is to contribute to sustainable human development, focusing on the basic needs of marginalized female population to improve their living conditions and thus to encourage them to become real actors of local development and foster partnership between men and women in the public life.

Their priority intervention areas are: basic education, development education as well as civic and citizenship education.
