Our Mission

Who We Are

Berkshire Women for Women Worldwide (BWWW) reinforces empowerment and gender equality for women in developing countries by supporting United Nations Development Fund for Women (UNIFEM)’s advocacy and fundraising efforts. BWWW (formerly a chapter of the United States Committee for UNIFEM) was established in 2000.

What We Do

  • Raise funds to support UNIFEM projects which support women’s political and economic empowerment in developing countries
  • Plan programs to educate the Massachusetts community about the plight of women in developing countries and the key role they can play in reaching development goals
  • Provide speakers to organizations and schools
  • Work with other local organizations committed to the eradiction of those discriminatory practices which foster the feminization of poverty

We are volunteers backing the mission, goals, and programs of the United Nations Development Fund for Women. Learn more about membership and make a difference!
