How we work

Two pathways, one purpose

Every Unity4Her programme sits under one of two pathways — women's rights and representation, or the practical foundations of a secure future.

Her Voice

Empowering Somali women to become informed, organized, and influential leaders in decision-making — through political empowerment and legal advocacy so women's voices are represented in policies, laws, and governance.

  • Legal Advocacy
  • Women-Led Legal Aid Clinic
  • Political Empowerment
See Her Voice programmes

Her Future

Supporting Somali women to lead localized action on six SDGs most relevant to their lived realities — from girls' education and livelihoods to health, climate resilience, and peacebuilding.

  • Girls' Education & TVET
  • Livelihoods & Economic Empowerment
  • Climate Action & Resilience

Since 2023

What we've built together

Programme-level reach figures shouldn't be added into one total, since some women take part in more than one Unity4Her programme. See Our Reach for programme-by-programme numbers.
