MWEDO aims to work towards the empowerment of disadvantaged Maasai women economically, politically, culturally and socially through implementing activities in capacity building, HIV/AIDS interventions as well as Advocacy for Human Rights and Education.

It is known that Maasai, and particularly Maasai women are marginalized both within their own culture and within mainstream Tanzanian society. It is MWEDO’s mission to reduce that marginalization and help create opportunities for Maasai women through the sharing of information and education whilst protecting the majority of the Maasai culture.
