Women's Platform
Our Women’s Platform brings together women through training and development programme. To contact the Women’s Platform at this time, please send a Whatsapp message to 061 649 6552
Our Objective
Migrant women fight isolation by sharing opportunities and experiences and thereby transforming their lives to become self-sufficient, engaged members of South African society. We are building a multinational network of women that strengthens individuals to enhance economic independence and integration into the broader South African community. Broadly speaking, the Women’s Platform is a network where women can facilitate connections, share knowledge and resources, and access opportunities. Specifically, the Platform offers a variety of practical peer-led trainings. The network is cultivated through two areas of focus; personal development and sector skills training.
Accessing the Women’s Platform
To join the Women’s Platform, please sign up at the reception of the Scalabrini Centre of Cape Town or please send a Whatsapp message to 061 649 6552. We are open Monday-Thursday, 9am–3:30pm.
