IWCA UGANDA CHAPTER<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The International Women\u2019s Coffee Alliance (IWCA) Uganda Chapter is part of a global network of self-organized, self-governing women in coffee industry that lobby and advocate for reduction of barriers in the coffee industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the global level, women from Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and the United States of America came together to focus on their shared interest: improve all aspects of the coffee industry by empowering and connecting women. With their vision, and the support of founding partners, the International Women\u2019s Coffee Alliance was born.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Over time, and with important partnerships within and across the industry, the idea grew into an established organization that connects individuals, communities, and organizations, empowering women to lead the way to sustainable livelihoods, ultimately advancing the global coffee industry. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
