Association Overview:
Mission:
SWFP is a non-profit supporting women and female businesses in conflict zones. Through projects integrating economic inclusion, peace-building, and local participation, SWFP empowers women, promoting their role and positive impact.
About Us:
Founded by Selene Biffi, operating in Afghanistan for 14 years, SWFP earned recognition, including the “Mother Teresa Memorial Award.” After Kabul’s fall (August 2021), Selene evacuated dozens to Italy and formed a network supporting over 1,500 vulnerable individuals in Afghanistan.
When women sought help to continue working, Selene launched SWFP, supporting 300 women-led micro-businesses in four Afghan regions.
