Measurement

The Women's Prosperity Index

Sierra Leone's first composite measure of women's economic wellbeing

The Women's Prosperity Index (WPI) is AllWoman4Betteh's flagship measurement framework — a composite index that tracks women's economic empowerment across five dimensions: financial inclusion, enterprise activity, energy access, leadership participation, and community solidarity. The WPI is published annually and used to hold governments, donors, and institutions to account.

01Financial Inclusion

Access to savings, credit, insurance, and formal financial services

02Enterprise Activity

Business ownership, market participation, and income generation

03Energy Access

Reliable, affordable, and clean energy for household and business use

04Leadership Participation

Women in decision-making roles at community, district, and national level

05Community Solidarity

Membership of women's groups, networks, and collective action bodies

The 2025 Women's Prosperity Index baseline report is in preparation. Data collection is underway across all 14 districts. Results will be published in Q4 2025.

Voices

Impact Stories

Real women. Real change.

These stories are placeholders — to be replaced with real case studies, testimonials, and impact narratives from women in our programmes. If you have a story to share, we want to hear it.

Before the savings group, I had no way to plan for the future. Now I have a loan, a growing business, and I am teaching my daughter what I have learned.

When we organise together, people listen. Our circle has changed how decisions are made in this community — and women are at the table now.

The solar panel changed everything. I can work after dark. My children can study. My business has grown because I am no longer paying for kerosene.
