Female Wave of Change
Who we are
Female Wave of Change (FWOC) is a global movement with a clear mission that intends to create a better world for all; a more connected, more conscious, more sustainable, and more humane world. We believe that we can reshape the future by using our feminine values and feminine energy. By guiding women from all walks of life to step into their Authentic Feminine Leadership we will be able to lead positive change and create a legacy to be proud of for generations to come. FWOC offers women a safe place where they can be their authentic self, be economically empowered and grow into the changemakers the world desperately needs right now. Together we actively create a more sustainable world based on human values, on compassion, on collaboration and abundance; a world where we celebrate diversity and create equal opportunities for all.
Our Vision
Female Wave of Change was officially founded in January 2017 in the Netherlands because we wanted to organize one conference in September of that year to create awareness that we live in a world of change, exponential change. We also realized that the world we live in is not a world we are proud to leave to the next generation. We wanted women to be prepared and we wanted them to take responsibility; The responsibility to re-direct change and to create a better world for each and everyone. We strongly believed already at that moment in time that we need to use our feminine values and our feminine energy. Authentic Feminine Leadership is the way to move forward to create a better, more connected, more conscious, and more sustainable world for all; to build a legacy we can be proud of!
Little did we know at that time that it was going to be so much bigger than this one conference: Within no time we built a huge international movement and more and more women from all over the world joined us. By the end of 2017, Female Wave of Change was represented in almost 25 countries and growing. Women were connecting online and offline, sharing knowledge, experience and wisdom, and creating new opportunities together.
Now Female Wave of Change is represented in over 40 countries and has a growing network of Ambassadors, Wavemakers, a Circle of Wise Women, a fantastic group of volunteers (our Inner Circle) and many women all over the globe who visit our local events or join us online.
Our Values
Humanity is the Core
FWOC believes that humanity should be at the core of all our decision-making and actions.
Embrace Diversity
FWOC welcomes women and men from all walks of life and from all over the world, no matter their cultural background, gender, color of their skin, sexual preference, age, economic situation, religion or their educational background. We embrace diversity as an opportunity to open our minds to new perspectives; the more diverse the community, the richer the conversation. We offer each one a safe space to be their unique self, to be treated with respect and without judgement.
Inclusive Society
FWOC contributes to help build an inclusive society where everyone has equal chances and opportunities to learn, to grow and to develop their talents as an individual and as an Authentic Feminine Leader. We strive for a true sense of belonging and reject biases or discrimination in any form or for any reason.
Stimulate Compassion
FWOC stimulates compassion by opening up to the challenges others are facing and act on it with empathy, patience, kindness, warmth and wisdom. We intend to show each person that they matter, that we see them, we value and recognize them.
Open your Heart
FWOC believes that by connecting on a heart level, by creating that sense of belonging, we will reshape the future, build a more humane society and create a better world for all.
Social Responsibility
FWOC stimulates women to be pro-active, to take responsibility for their own future, the future of their family, the community and of the world. We are aware that we are the keepers of the planet that belongs, at least, to the next seven generations and are creating a legacy to be proud of.
Sustainable Living
FWOC intends to improve the quality of human life while living within the caring capacity of the earth’s supporting ecosystems. We want to ensure that future generations have the natural resources available to live a healthy and happy live.
Dare2Dream
FWOC offers an environment where women start dreaming again, to live a meaningful and peaceful life and think in abundance and prosperity for all.
Lifelong Learning
FWOC stimulates women to live a life based on a constant need to learn, un-learn and re-learn. We offer an environment in which everyone has an opportunity to reinvent themselves, to grow into their unique self, to experiment, to fail, to reflect and to recreate. We believe we are all lifelong students and at the same time we are the teachers, the mentors, and the coaches to guide others on their transformation process.
Healthy lifestyle
FWOC stimulates women to be physically, mentally, and spiritually fit to be the change, to live a healthy lifestyle and to practice selfcare.
Reshape the Future
FWOC offers an environment where we do not fight the old but create the new. We intend to reshape the future and stimulate a mindset of creation and innovation.
Your Story Matters
FWOC creates awareness that stories matter and need to be shared to heal and inspire self and others.
Financial Independence
FWOC believes that financial independence and economic empowerment is essential for every woman; this will contribute to solutions for many global challenges. We stimulate social entrepreneurship to create sustainable income streams and jobs.
