From A Handful Of Members To A Continental Coalition

In 2020, WAG attended the AWID Forum in Brazil with Mama Cash support. The team hosted a disability hub and presented a session. New members from Zambia, Algeria, Nigeria, and Cameroon joined the coalition as a result. WAG also made contact with new funders, including the African Women's Development Fund and the Disability Rights Fund. Starting with limited reach and a small membership, WAG used one international event to build a network spanning several countries and funding relationships.
