ABOUT CEDPA
CEDPA believes that when women move forward, the world moves with them. And that’s not just our belief—30 years of experience has proved us right.

We’ve worked with women (and supportive men) to increase education, improve reproductive health, fight AIDS and strengthen women’s leadership in countries from Albania to Zambia. And we’ve learned that when women and girls have the knowledge, tools and resources to improve their lives, their families, communities and the whole world benefits.

We invite you to join the groundswell of change agents improving the lives of women and girls worldwide. Check out www.cedpa.org to learn more.
