Launched in 2007 by the Mama Zimbi Foundation (MZF), the Widows Alliance Network (WANE) project empowers  widows in Ghana from the social, cultural and economic deprivation brought about by the prejudices they face because of their status. The project was introduced to equip widows in Ghana with the prerequisite employable skills, human rights education, reproductive health and social integration programmes to create a paradigm shift in how Ghana's communities perceive and treat widows.
