Picture
When translated to English, Mujerave literally means ladybird. The name evokes not only the human-environment nexus, but also reflects the reality that women’s empowerment—helping women soar—is a successful strategy for improving health and education outcomes the world over. To learn more about this strategy, see our section on Gender Mainstreaming.

The image of a woman carrying the tinaja (traditional water jug) was chosen for the logo because it reminds​ ​​us women in Guatemala are couriers of extremely important cultural and linguistic knowledge. Women also "carry" local expertise on a variety of topics including family health, resource availability/scarcity, local ecosystems, and the cultivation of traditional and medicinal plants.


​Mujerave is a nonprofit organization under section 501(c)(3) of the United States Internal Revenue Code. All donations are tax-deductible. Mujerave's tax identification number is 47-2708823.
