Initiatives/Focus

  • Focus on the UN's 17 Sustainable Develop Goals (SDGs)

    The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015, provides a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future. At its heart are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which are an urgent call for action by all countries - developed and developing - in a global partnership. They recognize that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth – all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests.

  • Support Legislative Action to fight Human Trafficking

    Human trafficking is the criminal act of recruiting, harboring and transporting people through the use of deception, coercion, and violence. According to the United Nations on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) Agency, "Millions of women, children and men worldwide are out of work, out of school and without social support in the continuing COVID-19 crisis, leaving them at greater risk of human trafficking". This means that the problem is getting worse and needs to be addressed. 

  • Education and Awareness of Domestic Partner Violence and Violence Against Women

    Domestic violence is physical, sexual, emotional and economic abuse. Human Trafficking is the use of force, fraud, or coercion to obtain some type sexual labor

  • Period Poverty

    3. Improving menstrual hygiene and providing access to affordable menstrual materials can help improve girls’ and women’s access to education, opening more options for jobs, promotions, and entrepreneurship, thus unleashing female contributions to the overall economy, rather than keeping them at home Environment Disposable sanitary products contribute to large amounts of global waste. Ensuring women and girls have access to sustainable and quality products,and improving the management of the disposal of menstrual products, can make a big difference to the environment. Unhygienic menstrual materials can cause major health issues and often schools, especially in rural Zambia lack adequate facilities for one to practice menstrual hygiene. As a result of this, many have to manage their menstruation in unsanitary ways.
