Who we areAbout Us.
Rise Initiative for Children and Women (RICW) is based in Gudele, Juba, South Sudan. We work alongside women, children and youth so they can be informed, protected and strong enough to reach their full potential.
Our vision
A peaceful and productive South Sudan where women, children, and youth are empowered, informed, and resilient enough to achieve their full potential.
Our mission
To advance the well-being of women and children through integrated protection, food security, equal participation, psychosocial support, and Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR).
What guides us
IntegrityTransparency and accountabilityInclusive and participatory developmentRespect for human rights
What we do
Behind every number is a mother, a child, a young person with a future. Our work rests on five pillars, and we deliver them together so families get support that fits their real lives.
Empowering the community
Food security and livelihoods (FSL)
A family that can feed itself can plan for tomorrow. We help households grow food, earn a steady income and build skills so no child goes to bed hungry.
Quality education
Every child deserves a classroom and a teacher who believes in them. We work to keep children, especially girls, learning and in school.
Child rights and protection
Children have the right to grow up safe. We stand with them, raise awareness in communities and connect children at risk to the help they need.
Psychosocial support (PSS) and social cohesion
Healing happens together. We offer a listening ear and safe spaces, and bring neighbours across divides to rebuild trust and peace.
Sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR)
Women and girls deserve honest information and care about their bodies and choices, shared with respect, dignity and without judgment.
