Women Forward International has partnered The Sakena Fund with Lynn University's Social Impact Lab to create the foundation for a virtual College Preparatory School in Afghanistan, catering specifically to women. Thanks to our donors, including the Cordes Foundation, and the support of iCohere’s secure platform, we began construction in 2024 on a fully equipped computer lab in Herat to enable online learning opportunities for Afghan women.

​

Leveraging iCohere’s secure platform and technical expertise, our Lynn University Social Impact Lab team is providing consulting to The Sakena Fund to launch a customized curriculum that empowers 22 Afghan women with skills for leadership, self-reliance, and personal freedom.

​​​

With technology at their fingertips and consistent support, these Afghan women will forge their own paths toward a more liberated future.

​

Our impact:

 

• A dedicated computer lab that will serve 22 Afghan women, providing them with the tools, training, and digital access they need to unlock new opportunities.

• A fully online curriculum tailored specifically to the learning needs of Afghan women.
