More than a podcast.
A Pan-African movement.
Helping young women find and use their voice while building a collective community voice to amplify topical issues affecting young people in Africa.
TWSS connects young African women through storytelling, skills, community and opportunities - turning lived experience into media, advocacy and action.
What is TWSS?
Young women are not short of ideas.
Too often, they are short of access, confidence, safe platforms and sustained networks.
Across Africa, young people are navigating decisions about health, safety, education, livelihoods, identity, leadership and their futures.
TWSS creates the space, tools and community to help them move from being audiences to becoming contributors.
