DIWA is open for applications form women social entrepreneurs.
DIWA is a three-month-long online capacity-building program made possible by partnership between Ashoka.org with S&P Global Foundation. DIWA takes Women Social Entrepreneurs (WSEs) on a learning journey that empowers them to create stronger impact, all while establishing a community of determined WSEs in ASEAN.

ABOUT DIWA : Advancing Women Social Entrepreneurs in ASEAN
In 2020, Ashoka set out on a journey to better understand the needs of women social entrepreneurs (WSEs) in ASEAN and strategies to build stronger support networks to encourage long-term, generative impact. This led to the publication of a 2020 report in collaboration with the S&P Global Foundation, which highlighted the experiences of over 100 WSEs in Southeast Asia.
Through the DIWA Capacity-building Program, we intend to continue establishing an ecosystem where women social entrepreneurs can model brave, compassionate, and inclusive leadership and co-lead change-making movements to accelerate systemic change this year. Participants will leave with frameworks, tools, and ideas to help them effectively lead teams and have a systemic impact. This fully-funded leadership development program was developed by Ashoka, collaborating with S&P Global Foundation.
