CEDEMUNEP


CEDEMUNEP, or the Centre for Black Peruvian Women's Development, is a non-profit organization founded in Lima, Peru in 1997, with a mission is to promote the rights of Afro-descendant populations, with particular emphasis on Afro-Peruvian women and gender equity and equality. CEDEMUNEP brings the voices and perspectives of Afro-Peruvians to the formal political process and delivers programs to strengthen their socio-economic, organizational, and political development.

CEDEMUNEP’s projects revolve around fostering the integral development, cultural identity, and participation of Afro-Peruvian women in the decision-making processes, and non-discrimination and prevention of violence against them.

MATCH, WUSC and the CEDEMUNEP will work in partnership with Afro-Peruvian women organizations in Peru to promote the political participation and leadership of Afro-Peruvian women. The Project will train emerging and established leaders as well as build an Action Plan for a network of Afro-Peruvian organizations to work together on shared objectives.
