Our Strategies
- Advocacy: Advocacy is an important vehicle and a core pillar of our foundation. We take our advocacy to government and non-governmental organizations with a view to improving and reshaping the policy landscape and level of participation of state and non-state actors; and ultimately toward improving the affairs of vulnerable populations in our society
- Generate awareness: Increase online visibility/presence and penetration; interface and network with organizations who share similar goals such as CBOs, NGOs, CSOs, and FBOs; intensify civic engagements and public enlightenment; improve quality and frequency of communication (e.g. through documentation and distribution of publications).
- Capacity building: Research; developed interaction and partnerships with skills development organizations and professionals to provide periodic skills training, capacity development programs, and leadership training. Our personnel also regularly attend capacity development workshops, seminars and conferences.
