Target groups and approach
Our work is aimed at changing the lives of children, adolescents and youths.
We believe that a socio-ecological approach is necessary to catalyse and sustain normative change. Accordingly, our interventions target the determinants of poor health, education and gender inequality present at individual, family, community, and system levels in a synergistic way. We work in close collaboration with local administration, local self-government, and government line departments, such as, Departments of Education; Health & Family Welfare; Social Welfare; and Woman & Child Development.
