OUR AREAS OF OPERATION
Our Activities
Gender Equity
Nowadays, segregation in any domain of life, be it hygiene, education or professionalism is uncalled for and discouraged. Gender equity is one of the ways to make society a better place. We are out to see that women are not treated as sub-humans or forced into unwanted marriages and child bearing , or even worst asked to stay at home while the male child goes to school. this is a practice that is still very common in some parts of Cameroon. We fight for equal places in the society for all with everyone’s right being respected.
Youth Engagement in Nation Building
Encouraging youths to be self-employed in order to drift them far away from idleness, is one of the ways to avoid vandalism and encourage nation building, in a bit to get the youths into leadership.
Community Education
Economic Empowerment
It is commonly said that instead of giving me fish, teach me how to fish. If we empower our women and youths economically, we stand a better chance of fighting social ills such as poverty, hunger, forced marriages and conflict.
