About us…

Who are we?

„Femina is a nonprofit organization established by women from Croatia. Our mission is to provide professional and personal support for women of all ages, nationalities, and backgrounds. We understand that women in our region and elsewhere often face unique challenges, whether at work or in their personal lives. That’s why it’s important for us to support women and provide them with the tools and resources they need to succeed.

We offer a variety of programs and events, from mentoring programs to networking events, to connect and empower women. We believe that women can change the world when they work together. Whether you’re a young woman just starting out in your career or an experienced professional looking to connect with others, we invite you to join us and be a part of this movement for change.

Our Mission

At NGO Femina, we aim to create and support social initiatives that benefit the entrepreneurial sector while providing opportunities for transnational cooperation, networking, and exchanging knowledge and best practices among women entrepreneurs. We aim to empower women from all backgrounds and provide them with the tools and resources to succeed.

Our organization is committed to creating a supportive environment for women entrepreneurs, especially those from socially disadvantaged groups. We can help women overcome barriers and achieve their goals through collaboration, creativity, and collective empowerment. Our transnational approach allows us to connect women from different countries and cultures, fostering a diverse and inclusive community of women entrepreneurs.

Through our programs, services, and initiatives, we strive to give women entrepreneurs the resources they need to start and grow successful businesses. We also aim to raise awareness about women entrepreneurs’ challenges and advocate for policies and initiatives that support their success.

Join us in our mission to empower women entrepreneurs and create a more equitable and prosperous world. Together, we can make a difference and help women around the world achieve their dreams.

We support expats and nomad women to integrate easier and quicklier in the Croatian society by offering them valuable information about the typical country aspects and a international network where they can find support and connection.

Thank you for supporting NGO Femina.

🎤 Excellent Moderation at rAIse ◇ reimagine the Future 🇭🇷

Last weekend, at the stunning Rixos Premium Dubrovnik, the rAIse: Reimagine the Future event brought together forward-thinkers, innovators, and visionaries to explore the transformative potential of AI.

When dialogue is inspired and intentional, the possibilities are endless.

What I learned is that stepping out of the comfort zone can be so scary, but by doing so I realized, that everything ... literally everything is possible.

We want to encourage people to take the challenge, listen to their hearts, move on, and become themselves.
We are here to have your back!
