One Circle is founded by a young Swazi woman who in her mid twenties established this women’s platform to inspire one another through the spread of accurate information, and sharing of relevant skills, that significantly contribute to economic livelihoods.
Faced with, challenges like many other women in the African continent of inadequate information on women related issues, depressed socio-economic circumstances, women’s talents and abilities that do not always translate into productive employment.
This inspired the vision and creation of One Circle, a space that serves as a knowledge Carrefour. Information is vital in changing the landscape of dealing with the societal cornerstones facing women today, disseminating this through the use of creative skills already possessed by women, is a movement empowering other women to become active economic contributors.

One Circle is a non-profit organization established in Swaziland in 2008 with a dedication to educating and disseminating accurate information whilst linking it to relevant needs for the empowerment of young women through creative arts.

One Circle strives at creating a conducive environment for the sharing of information, knowledge, and skills for a sustainable future.  An information network empowering women with an ability to make better decisions that affect their lives and resources whilst enabling them to become economically active and independent.
