The WARIF Dialogue 2022


The Women at Risk International Foundation (WARIF) Dialogue is an annual engagement that brings together thought leaders and leading advocates in the gender and women’s rights and empowerment space to discuss and highlight emerging issues of women’s rights and the adverse impact of inequality as seen in our society today.

We believe that conversations like these are extremely important in advancing the gender equality agenda and the rights of women and girls, leading to solutions for a brighter future where all women can live in a society free of violence, discrimination, and bias.

The 2nd Edition of WARIF Dialogue will take place as follows:
Theme: Women’s Rights = Human Rights – Are we there yet?
Date: Thursday, 1st December 2022
Time: 10:00am – 11:00am WAT
