Mission Statement
Our mission is to amplify the voices of women, girls, and persons with disabilities by challenging harmful practices, advocating for equality, and fostering safe, empowered communities. Through education, advocacy, and open dialogue, we strive to create positive, lasting change for those who are often unheard.
Vision Statement
We envision a world where every woman, girl, and person with a disability is not only safe and respected but also free to live and lead with dignity, equality, and opportunity.
About Us
Voice for the Voiceless Woman (VVW) is a registered, women-led, community-based organization founded in 2010 in Bo District, Southern Sierra Leone. Born out of the urgent need to uplift the silenced voices of women, girls, and persons living with disabilities affected by harmful traditional practices, VVW has become a powerful grassroots movement for gender justice, dignity, and human rights.Officially registered with the Ministry of Social Welfare and the Bo District Council, VVW has spent over a decade working at the intersection of tradition and transformation. We are a voice, a safe space, and a catalyst for change standing with survivors, advocating with communities, and empowering those who have long been pushed to the margins
What We Do
Ending Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting (FGM/C)
VVW actively challenges the harmful practice of FGM/C through survivor-led campaigns, safe space dialogues, and strategic community engagement. We believe in transformation from within—working hand-in-hand with traditional leaders, local influencers, and youth champions to shift deeply rooted norms and foster alternative rites of passage
Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment
Our work is grounded in the belief that gender equality is not just a goal—it is a foundation for development, peace, and community wellbeing. Through leadership training, rights awareness, and mentoring programs, we equip women and girls with the tools, knowledge, and confidence to rise as agents of change.
Community-Led Dialogues and Partnerships
We believe sustainable change comes from within. That’s why we foster inclusive dialogue between generations, working alongside parents, elders, chiefs, and young people. Our partnerships with schools, religious groups, and civil society actors ensure that our programs are locally rooted, culturally sensitive, and collectively owned.
Meet the Team
At the heart of our organization is a passionate and diverse team committed to justice, dignity, and lasting change. Rooted in community values and driven by purpose, this team brings together a powerful blend of leadership, advocacy, and compassion.
With a deep background in education, public health, grassroots activism, and psychosocial support, the team is united by a shared belief in the power of people—especially women and girls—to transform their own lives and communities. Whether championing equality, coordinating outreach, or walking alongside survivors of gender-based violence, every action is guided by empathy, respect, and a people-centered approach.
What makes this team truly special is not just their professional expertise, but their unwavering commitment to uplifting the unheard and building a world where no one is made to feel invisible. They believe in walking with communities, not ahead of them—ensuring every voice is valued, and every step forward is rooted in collaboration, integrity, and hope.
Together, they are more than a team—they are a movement for empowerment, healing, and sustainable progress.
