About Company

The Deaf Women Farmers Initiative (DWFI) is dedicated to empowering Deaf women and girls through inclusive agricultural training, advocacy, and sustainable development opportunities. Our mission is to provide Deaf women with the skills, resources, and support needed to excel in farming, ensuring they have equal access to opportunities in the agricultural sector. Through specialized programs and workshops, DWFI fosters independence, self-reliance, and economic empowerment for Deaf women, while advocating for their inclusion in broader agricultural and community development efforts. We are committed to creating lasting change by breaking down barriers and providing a platform for Deaf women to thrive in agriculture.
