Thematic Areas
We possess competencies in four fields of work.
Green Economy
We promote integrated farming practices among smallholder farmers to improve their livelihoods and conserve the environment. Smallholder farmers in rural and urban areas are encouraged to adopt organic farming methods like permaculture/syntropic agroforestry for increased income, food diversification and at the same time conserving the environment.
Skills & Enterprise Development
We provide poor and marginalized women and youth with the knowledge, skills, capital, and networks to expand their business, boost their income, create employment opportunities for others, and participate in household and community decision-making.
Gender-based Violence Prevention
We challenge gender norms that undermine human dignity and drive conflicts. We work with partners on issues related to sexual and domestic violence, Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) and increasing women participation in peace processes.
Conflict Transformation
We work with communities and leaders of rival groups to build peace across division. We bring competing parties together, provide dialogue and mediation platforms and safe spaces for victims and perpetrators.
Governance & Participation
We promote and advocate for the inclusion of citizens in democratic processes through civil education, access to information and networking to createmore positive and responsive relationships between citizens and state authorities.
Blue Economy
We offer capacity development for coastal communities within Mari culture by focusing on the following areas: Mari culture technical training, business and financial management training, as well as leadership training. This aims at improving the economic growth of the coastal counties through the creation of job opportunities, fostering better working conditions and increasing their income.
