Overview
|
The
Bina Roy Partners in Development Programme (BRPID) encourages international
solidarity and partnerships between IFUW federations and associations.
Its primary goal is to support projects empowering women and girls
through education and leadership development. In
2007 donor contributions help pay the IFUW membership fees of national
affiliates in more than 30 countries. This enabled these groups
to keep and invest an equivalent sum on local projects. In this
way, the BRPID
programme works for the advancement of women and girls while enabling
groups of women graduates throughout the world to be part of IFUW
- making IFUW a truly global organization.
