Women Unite is a vocal and percussion group consisting of eight South African women.

Women Unite was founded in the spring of 1997 by Thandi Swaartbooi. The group has an idealistic profile, and seeks to empower women in various ways, particularly as related to art and music, and to stand up against contemporary social ills like AIDS, domestic abuse, drugs and gangsterism.

Their style of music is described by the group as traditional South African. The band has attracted attention in Norway because of a cooperative project with the group Brazz Bros, with whom they have toured.
