AWDF’s Grantees Recognition Survey forms part of its monitoring, evaluation and learning instruments used to access and ascertain the profound impact grantees are making in the lives of women and the continent at large. The survey showcases the recognition/awards received by AWDF’s grantees and also highlights the role AWDF played. With a mandate to fund in all 54 pays d’Afrique, AWDF has provided grants and technical support to over 1300 organisations de femmes dans 42 hors de 54 countries since the beginning of its operation in 2001. These organisations are contributing to the improved living conditions of beneficiaries, increased recognition and inclusion of women’s rights issues in the development agenda and the continuous struggle for social justice in their communities. By doing this they have earned recognition, awards and influence in their localities / communautés, pays, in the continent and beyond. These recognitions come in various forms and AWDF systematically tracks and documents such recognitions/awards annually. For this purpose, online questionnaires were sent to 123 organisations dans 17 pays (100 organisations dans 12 Anglophone countries and 23 organisations dans 5 Francophone countries) who were supported with grants of $5,000 and above in 2015.
