Are you ready to experience a space where the voices of women become intertwined, to build supportive paths together?
B-UNA is much more than a physical place; it is a symbol of connection and alliance building. Its name embodies the essence of our ideas.
Buna is a Bengali word that means “to weave,” like weaving threads together. Bhuna also refers to the mix of spices that you cook at the start of a dish, before it becomes a new recipe. B-UNA also means “Be One,” but in the feminine form ,to be one, to be allies in the same community.
The B-UNA Space is meant to be a meeting place, created to offer listening, guidance, and support to women from all over the world.
Key activities related to the WISER project – which supports women’s economic and financial independence – and the T-ESSERE PONTI reload programme, dedicated to improving access to services, work and rights, will take place here.
Come join the B-UNA party!
It will be the perfect time to discover the space, get to know the people who animate it and see how it could be a landmark for you too.
We look forward to seeing you
