The Strategic Initiative for Women in the Horn of Africa (SIHA) Network is a pioneering women’s rights organization actively driving change across the Greater Horn of Africa, including South Sudan. Established in the 1990s by women activists, SIHA challenges harmful gender norms, addressing systemic inequalities and advocating for women's empowerment.
In South Sudan, SIHA’s programs focus on addressing gender-based violence, promoting women's leadership, and enhancing access to justice. Through grassroots coalitions, they support women in marginalized communities, fostering resilience, solidarity, and equality. SIHA’s initiatives prioritize capacity-building for local organizations, empowering them to advocate for systemic transformation.
By combining advocacy, education, and community engagement, SIHA strives to create a just and peaceful environment where South Sudanese women and girls can fully realize their rights. Their commitment to ethical values and innovative approaches underscores their impact in this politically volatile region.
