From experience delivering our various programs, we shall ultimately engage in advocacy actions to influence local and international policy & practice in ways that improve the socio-economic wellbeing of people and communities. Our advocacy and policy work will ensure young people, women and local communities increasingly become a key stakeholder in their development and a force of change. To this end, our actions-to-influence (working with government, international institutions and the private sector) shall focus around:
– Early youth mentoring (counselling and orientation) from 4th year of secondary school
– Quality improvement (and compliance) in education & training content and delivery
-Significantly reducing social injustices/inequalities which challenge poverty eradication
-Youth civic engagement & inclusive governance (participation in governance process)
-Effective and responsive public institutions
-Responsive private sector that embodies principles of sustainable development
-Financial inclusion
-Entrenchment of gender and environmental concerns into the development mainstream
-Alignment of international economic and development policy with local development and poverty alleviation objectives
We shall also conduct research in cross cutting themes around development and humanitarian action.
