on our female empowerment


Explanation:
Especially considering the beginning of the sentence, "This project is based...", I don't think it sounds redundant, and is effective to the obvious female readers/audience.

Female empowerment is at the core / is the heart of our project


Explanation:
This translation emphasizes the idea of the project having a well-defined base. At the same time, it commnicates the message through a livelier, more organic terminology that seems appropriate to the subject matter.

This would be my two cents!

Example sentence(s):
  • Google is a search engine at its core.
