To ensure that African media and civil society organizations develop to become viable players in a changing political, technical and economic landscape, the Women Leaders for Development Network supports the creation of new coalitions and the strengthening of existing ones. These partnerships promote favorable environments and sustainable sources of journalism and civic participation, enabling the media and civil society to provide citizens with the information, analysis and support they need to exercise their human rights and civil liberties.
