Our Vision, Mission & Ethos
Empowering Women, Transforming Communities.
Fortitude Impactful Women Empowerment Initiative
Fortitude Impactful Women Empowerment Initiative (FIWEI) is an innovative ecosystem and noble family, initiated within the southeast region of Nigeria. Our vision is to extend our ideas, mission, goals, and vision to every part of the southeast and the country at large. FIWEI is geared towards ensuring, fostering, and promoting general awareness of women's advancement, empowerment, and development. We are establishing a special self-help growth and love system that will strengthen and build lifelong healthy marriages, leadership skills, and positive attitudinal changes. This will help to build better everyday well-being, support self-dependency, and leverage women to harness their hidden, untapped positive potentials. We aim for them to utilize and maximize these potentials to be resourceful to themselves and the country at large.
Developing Foresight
FIWEI helps women develop the foresight to anticipate and prepare for future challenges and opportunities, enabling them to think ahead, make wise decisions, develop emotional and physical confidence, and build capacity and stability, which helps them avoid regrets.
Genuine Networking
Engage in genuine networking connections that help build meaningful relationships through trust, respect, and mutual benefits. These connections help individuals grow, learn, expand their reach, and open doors to opportunities. As the saying goes, 'If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.'
Creative & Determined Mindset
Creating insights for a well-equipped, determined, and creative mindset. This involves fostering a curiosity, discipline, and adaptability that allows one to think outside the box and come up with unique ideas. We insert creativity tools that help ensure they put in the hard work to turn ideas into reality, overcoming inevitable challenges when used as a tool to adapt and innovate. Creativity sparks the vision, and determination powers the journey to success.
Resilient Mindset
Helping women cultivate a resilient mindset to bounce back from challenges and grow stronger with each experience. Resilience means seeing failure as a stepping stone to success, not a dead end. Restoring the ability to believe in themselves, take action, overcome obstacles, and learn from the situation.
Continuous Progress
Encouraging women to keep moving forward in the right direction. Life is like riding a bicycle: if you stop pedaling, you fall.
Intentionality with Clarity
To be intentional with clarity of purpose by setting goals and taking deliberate steps to achieve them, instead of waiting. Knowing what you want and why you want it, being mindful of her actions, words, and the people around her. Aligning efforts with purpose and staying consistent, not to be discouraged by slow progress or anything, as this gives good direction, focus, and helps make better decisions. Staying disciplined and never leaving success to luck.
Self-Discovery & Firmness
Supporting them in the journey of self-discovery, conscious investing, and firmness. The journey of understanding who you truly are—your strengths, weaknesses, values, and purpose—requires honest reflection and openness to growth. Setting rules, which is not being harsh or unkind, but standing one's ground with wisdom and fairness. Knowing oneself brings confidence, direction, and helps one move with clarity, as it helps turn challenges into lessons and mistakes into stepping stones.
Family Health & Societal Well-being
To contribute to the improvement of family health and nutrition in society, reduce poverty, and sustain peace in the general society.
Strong Social Support
Fostering a strong social network where women actively support one another.
Mentorship and Advice
Providing access to mentorship, support, and advice to guide their growth and development.
