Metta Journey

Experience the Women for Women International Program Firsthand.

Visit our program in Bosnia and Herzegovina through a partnership with Metta Journeys. During the trip, you will have the opportunity to witness Women for Women International’s programs in the field – and see how you are helping to make a difference in the lives of women survivors of war around the world.

Trip participants have the opportunity to sponsor one or more Bosnian women and meet them in person during this journey. This is an inspiring and unique opportunity to connect with women survivors of war.
