Sustainable Livelihoods

We support vulnerable families to improve their livelihoods through developing women’s skills in sustainable agriculture, micro-entrepreneurship, disaster preparedness and natural resource management.

Community Action Against Gender-Based Violence

We promote positive behaviour change among men and women, evidenced by decreased violence against women, increased participation of women in social activities and an increase in shared household decision-making.

Sustainable Development

Our sustainable grassroots development model has established a clear process for engagement with new villages and phase out of old villages.

Women’s Empowerment and Leadership Building

We empower women to exercise their rights to participate in decentralisation and development processes.
