Our Equity roadmap
At Women in Action Network (WIAN), we believe that development is built through systems that restore agency, amplify voice, and open real opportunities for change.
Through our Climate-Resilient Shea Livelihoods (CRSL) model, we turn crisis into opportunity. We work with communities to reimagine the shea sector as a living ecosystem, one that supports climate resilience, dignified work, and intergenerational continuity across the West African Shea Belt.
Our work is rooted in the land, guided by culture, and powered by youth-led innovation.

01.
Climate-Adaptive Livelihoods
Modernize shea processing by integrating clean-energy infrastructure, sustainable practices, and inclusive market access, ensuring environmental sustainability, improved livelihoods, and community-led growth.
02.
Economic Diversification
Creates resilient, regenerative income pathways by expanding beyond agriculture through eco-friendly initiatives, circular economy innovations, and livelihood diversification for women and youth.
03.
Workforce Development & Intergenerational Leadership
empowers youth with climate resilience skills through training and mentorship, blending traditional knowledge with future-ready skills for community stewardship.
04.
Health, Well-Being, and Care
fosters work-life balance by integrating caregiving support, health innovations, and economic agency, empowering women and youth through fair compensation and leadership opportunities.
A Word From Within
Through this integrated approach, WIAN delivers what we define as meaningful work: work that is productive, dignified, rooted in identity, and responsive to the realities of a changing climate.
This is what freedom looks like in practice.
It is not only the ability to earn, but the power to stay, to choose, to shape, and to lead.
WIAN’s model does more than respond to crisis.
It grows the future, with women at the center, youth in motion, and community at the heart.
