WEIN - Who we are

The challenges from the women moved the organization to expand its scope to providing facilities that would empower these women and so with the support of donor agencies WEIN Bauchi started voters’ education, micro-credit services, adult literacy classes, educating the women clients on Reproductive Health and HIV/AIDS, the provision of safe water and the promotion of good sanitation and hygiene.

These activities are greatly empowering women and are making them to participate in their town or village decision-making.

Women Empowerment Initiative (WEIN), Bauchi is a membership, non-governmental, non-political and non-religious Organization.
It was established in 1985. From humble beginning, the Organization has grown in size and scope to become one of the leading NGO’s in Bauchi State. WEIN has adjusted her programmes, and positioned herself within the NGO community as a promoter of women oriented development.
