Slum Women’s Iniative For Development

SWID uses the Local to Local dialogue methodology to engage grassroots women  with their community leaders and local authorities through women-led dialogues to discuss and negotiate solutions for a range of development issues such as land rights, inheritance laws, and gender-based violence issues.  Because the dialogues are initiated at the community level, solutions became locally customized strategies envisioned by grassroots groups that can be followed up with the local leaders. SWID also offers capacity building in business, marketing and management, paralegal, leadership, savings and credit management, record keeping and resource mobilization skills.
