Our Approach

27+ Years ofTransformation

Over the past 23 years, we have continuously expanded and adapted our programs to provide support to more than 80,000 marginalized women across the country.

To ensure a sustainable impact, we have established women graduates' networks in all sectors and districts of our current operation, spanning seven districts.

In an innovative approach, we introduced the Men's Engagement Program (MEP) to address gender inequalities and combat discriminatory customs and gender-based violence.
