AGENDA Afghanistan will work to reduce violence against women and girls by providing all necessary support services to survivors of such violence, advocating for the implementation of appropriate laws, policies, and government programs as well as working to increase women’s political participation through leadership, development, and capacity building.
Gender Equity: our activities must benefit both men and women equally. It is our desire that those who are most marginalized, especially women, are given special focus and attention in the design and implementation of our activities.
Diversity: we believe in a diverse working environment and will put in place policies and actions that promote diversity
Accountability to stakeholders: we must be held accountable by our key stakeholders. We are open to evaluation of our work and will involve the principal stakeholder in all aspects, including scrutiny of our financial operations.
Innovation: is our driving force, the need to explore new opportunities that enable poor people to get involved in economic activities. We will explore new territories, which are not traditional enterprise activities and create viable enterprises that include poor people.
Partnership: we value partnerships. This enables us to understand others and provide us an opportunity to replicate our ideas through the right mechanisms which ensure sustainability.
