Purpose

The project aims to support Afghan women and girls to participate more effectively in decision making processes. It addresses gender-based violence by supporting stakeholders to strengthen the implementation of policies and programs, changing attitudes, and providing survivors of violence with enhanced access to support services and economic opportunity. The project also strengthens coordination among key women’s organizations, in particular, members of the Afghan Women’s Network, by increasing their capacity and collaboration around accountability, knowledge sharing, and joint advocacy related to women’s rights and empowerment.
