through service & Advocacy

We envision a world in which women's rights are recognized as human rights and every woman is able to achieve her full potential. In such a world, women have access to all resources and are represented in decision-making positions on an equal basis with men.

Why we are a part of Zonta!

Zonta gives me the opportunity to connect with other professional women, who are in a different field than myself. It allows me to support and change our local community for the better. But most important to me, is that it has given me a deeper understanding of the challenges women face around the world and what I can do to help!
