Since 2016, Women for Change (WFC) is a women-led organization (WLO) that has been undertaking work in protection, education (formal and informal), reproductive health, food security and livelihoods, peace building, organizational capacity strengthening, and advocacy in Central Equatoria, Warrap and Western Bahr El Ghazel States, South Sudan. Prior to this project, WFC had never assumed leadership of a GBV working group. The opportunity to assume co-leadership of the GBV working group in Warrap State emerged through this project in February 2022. When WFC’s Executive Director came across the call for expressions of interest shared by the South Sudan NGO Forum’s information desk, they decided to apply. Out of the ten organizations that applied, WFC was the successful applicant.
