The challenge
Why this work matters
Girls and vulnerable women face challenges relating to dignity, empowerment and opportunity — from access to sanitary products that keep girls in school, to the economic barriers that limit women's independence.
Our intent
ABFAED will support girls and women to learn, stay healthy and build economic independence, with dignity at the centre of every intervention.
Focus areas
What this pillar will address
Dignity and menstrual health

Education for girls
Helping girls stay in school and access the learning, mentorship and confidence they need to progress.
Economic empowerment for women
Supporting vulnerable women with skills and pathways toward sustainable livelihoods.
Measuring progress
