WOPEDE (Women's Organization for Peace and Development) was founded in 1999 by Mme Cimpaye Modeste, a visionary leader who recognized the urgent need to support refugee women and promote peace in communities affected by conflict.
For over 25 years, we've been dedicated to empowering women, building peace, and creating sustainable change in communities across Kenya.
The heart of WOPEDE CBO—why we exist, where we're going, and what we stand for.
