CAMFED

CAMFED is a pan-African movement revolutionising how girls’ education is delivered. Through a gold-standard system of accountability to the young people and communities it serves, CAMFED has created a model that radically improves girls’ prospects of becoming independent, influential women. The organisation focusses on girls and young women in sub-Saharan Africa who live in rural areas, where living standards are tough and seeks to empower the community through dismantling social and financial barriers. CAMFED operates in Zimbabwe, Zambia, Ghana, Tanzania and Malawi. By 2017, CAMFED supported more than 1.5 million children through education in a network of 5,500 schools.
