Better Together (أحسن سوية): A women’s community for every ambitious woman
Amid the social and economic challenges women face, Better Together has built a safe, supportive space to empower Iraqi women and help them grow.
We began in 2022 as a Facebook group that brought together more than 20,000 women. Today we run two workshops every week, each with more than 60 women.
Our programs
Four initiatives that are still going strong, and two fun workshops every week.
- صحتها Her HealthHealth awareness for womenLaunched in 2022 to raise women’s health awareness through specialist health seminars and interactive discussions with experts in medicine, nutrition and mental health.
- مكّنها Empower HerEconomic independence for womenLaunched in November 2023 at the first event that brought Better Together members together in person, to support women who run small and medium businesses and train them in entrepreneurship.
- كتابها Her BookReading club and cultureLaunched in 2024 to spread a love of reading among women, with weekly in-person meetings that began in Baghdad and have spread to Mosul.
- عطاؤها Her GivingGiving and helping among womenLaunched in 2025 to root the values of giving and helping among women, by collecting donations and directing them to women going through hard health, social or financial circumstances.
