About Us

PAWO started way back around the 1940's as a Pan African Women's Revolutionary Movement that fought for the Independence of Africa and human rights of the African Peoples irrespective of where they were.

These African Women linked up and worked closely with the Pan African Movement (PAM) as a sister entity that shared operated from different fronts but shared the same cause and struggle.

Eventually, PAWO was recognised and launched in 1962 in Dar-es-Salaam, Tanzania, officiated by H.E Mwalimu Julius Kambarage Nyerere in the presence of other African Leaders at the time, in recognition of the visionary women who realized the need to unite sisters from all African countries. These women built close relationships, shared experiences and victories as they struggled for the independence of Africa while addressing common challenges. Read more
