Name your women's groupChoose a name that aligns with your group’s purpose. You don’t want you to spend a lot of time here. We like to get caught up in finding the perfect name, creating the beautiful logo and planning what our “brand” will look like. Choose a name that works and move forward. It doesn’t have to be perfect and you can change it over time.Choose where you'll start your women's group There are several ways to add members to your women’s group, but the most important thing to keep in mind is that you have to start somewhere.

Unit 1.3. How to choose a name and place for your local women empowerment group and what activities you can build to attract women in your group

Here are a few ideas: Online: If you’re apart of any Facebook groups that have women you may want to network with or meet in real life then send them a message and invite them out.School/Cultural center of your locality/Other already established women associations spaces/Church/: If you’re already a part of a school (as teacher or student there), church community, then you can invite those same women to begin meeting to focus on a different topic (whatever topic you chose for your women’s group). Work/Friend group: As adults, sometimes the only place that we make friends is at work or school classes. If this is the case for you, then start asking those work women friends if they’d like to hang out as a part of your women’s group. Finding the right location for your women association is a prerequisite for the association’s registration procedure. In order to decide on the right amount of space, you must take into account the size of the association, staff mobility and staff attendance, and frequency of the members and interlocutors that are bound to your core activities.
