Our vision is to provide a beacon of hope, a place of sanctuary, a place where women can come to be fortified internally, whatever their background, creed, or colour. It is a place where women can be safe to explore their inner journey, find the greatness of companionship, discover what we are here to do, and find ways to be useful to others.
It’s a place where young women can learn dignity, self-respect and the joy of being female. A place where women further along the road of life can share their wisdom. It is a place where we can get to understand more about relationships, the male gender, love, success, creativity and how to establish a real mutuality and understanding between men and women so that we can work together for our future.
​Since its inception in 2016, the Global Partnership to End Violence Against Children has worked on multiple levels to achieve our vision: a world in which every child grows up safe and secure. We offer an opportunity for groups of all kinds — from governments to international organisations to children themselves — to work together to prevent and respond to violence on an unprecedented level.
