WAFW is a bold and daring action leadership program to develop young people, especially women, as leaders who engage and address the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals worldwide. It enrolls university women (and men) to discover their purpose, passion and path to success. Beginning on Sias University campus (Xinzheng, Henan Province) in 2009, WAFW grew from a one-year program for 100 women to a multi-level three-year program for women, and a Men’s Academy for the Future of Women, a program requested by men students, which prepares men to support the advancement of women.
The WAFW members spend a minimum of 8-10 hours each week for a full year in the Academy. They attend seminars, labs, coaching, Open Forums and WAFW community projects to achieve the curriculum outcomes. Each member must be engaged in a WAFW projects where they take their skills to action in the community. They join an existing Project or create on by themselves that addresses a UNSDGs. These address HIV-AIDS village children, Left Behind and Migrant Children, Elders who work on campus but lack nutrition and warm clothing, street workers who labor at night and are unknown and unrecognized for the contributions they make, Literacy where we teach parents to read and learn with their children ….and MORE! WAFW members do not receive university credit because they believe leadership is not for credit, it is for contribution. The WAFW alumni association has more than 1200 members, many who continue their service and support the WAFW’s growth through their careers and communities. The WAFW growth also depends on the generosity of the Academy facilitators, who prepare the five-week module presentations based on their personal skill sets and experiences that are aligned with the curriculum outcomes. More than 160 facilitators from U.S, U.K, Australia, Netherland etc. traveled to WAFW at their own expense.
