The Pastoral Women’s Council is a non-profit membership organisation that works in northern Tanzania to achieve gender equality and community development through the empowerment of Maasai women and girls. PWC seeks to bring about change in the communities it works in order that:
1. Women are able to control their economic status by improving their livelihoods to meet their daily needs
2. There is solidarity amongst women and collectively they are able to raise their voices to successfully advocate on issues of concern
3. Educated girls can create a society where women are independent, equal partners to men
