About NAWOU
The National Association of Women’s Organizations in Uganda (NAWOU) in Uganda was founded in the 1960’s as the National Council of Women (NCW) and the gender machinery then. It was mandated to coordinate and be a platform for promoting women in political leadership and to advocate for women’s issues and concerns.

Our Story
NAWOU owes her existence to the women’s movement whose advocacy for equal opportunities started as far back as 1894. From these modest beginnings, the National Council for Women
