Children are involved in community-building

We provide economic and leadership opportunities so women and other vulnerable adults can champion change
We include children in planning, designing, monitoring and evaluating our programs and in government meetings, councils and forums
We support clubs, youth groups and networks, which give children safe spaces to learn their rights, discuss issues and develop leadership skills

We help children make a case for change among local governments and leaders
We partner with parents, teachers and community members so children’s aspirations can be championed by all
