Stories from our Work
Eliminating Barriers through Meaningful Participation for Persons with Disabilities
Persons with disabilities are largely excluded from participating in decisions that largely affect them. This barrier in social inclusion is often exacerbated by attitudinal barriers, therefore leading to the lack of access to services that suit their needs and spaces where they can participate.
Bodily Autonomy: Empowering young people for Better Futures
Information on sexual health is largely hidden from young people. This attributes to high pregnancy rates and high incidences of unsafe abortions.
Building Evidence to Address the Menace of Sexual Violence and Unsafe Abortions
