The WFD, in partnership with the International Disability Alliance (IDA), has continued its Deaf Women’s Rights Training project to empower deaf women in six Southern African countries: Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, South Africa, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.

A group of twelve women pose outdoors, holding certificates and smiling at the camera, with greenery and trees in the background.

The second round of training was successfully held in Zambia, bringing together deaf women representatives from across the six countries for a six-day programme focused on human rights, advocacy, leadership, and strengthening their capacity to promote the rights and participation of deaf women in their communities.
