What we do
A2WG programmes are built around safety, access, skills, leadership, and accountable delivery.
Each programme area is connected. Protection work makes education safer. Health and disability inclusion restore dignity. Life skills and livelihoods create practical pathways. Advocacy helps communities understand rights and available support.
Protection and advocacy
Survivor-centered protection, safe spaces, and rights awareness
A2WG supports safer pathways for women and girls affected by violence, conflict, displacement, and exclusion. The work combines listening, referral awareness, dignity, and practical community presence.
Women and Girls Safe Space programming
S/GBV prevention and response awareness
Community dialogue on safety, dignity, and reporting pathways
Survivor-centered referrals and support coordination
Field connection
In Gwoza, the programme was delivered in a community setting where women, girls, men, and local actors could see practical support connected to protection messages.
Health and disability inclusion
Health access, assistive devices, and dignity-focused care
Health work is strongest when it restores access and dignity. A2WG links community health awareness with practical support for people whose mobility, hearing, or daily independence has been affected.
Assistive device distribution
Mobility support including crutches and wheelchairs
Hearing support and practical inclusion
Health information for safer, more dignified living
Field connection
The Gwoza distribution included visible disability inclusion support, with mobility and hearing-related assistance presented directly to community members.
Education and life skills
Learning pathways that build confidence, safety, and self-reliance
A2WG treats education as more than classroom access. The work includes life skills, retention support, leadership confidence, and learning moments that help women and girls make informed decisions.
Life skills graduation and recognition
Mentoring and confidence building
Awareness sessions connected to safety and wellbeing
Learning spaces that respect context and lived experience
Field connection
The Gwoza life skills graduation created a public moment of recognition and visibility for participants who completed practical learning activities.
Economic empowerment
Livelihoods, practical tools, and income pathways
Economic resilience requires more than encouragement. A2WG supports practical skills, tools, and community-based pathways that help women and girls move toward income, confidence, and independence.
Life skills linked to livelihood readiness
Practical tools for small-scale productivity
Enterprise confidence and peer support
Pathways for women and girls to sustain progress after training
Field connection
Field photos from Gwoza show livelihood-related tools and direct participant support connected to a wider protection and resilience intervention.
Programme accountability
Evidence, reporting, and partnerships keep the work credible.
A2WG programmes are strengthened through documentation, reporting, partner coordination, and learning. The same evidence used to tell the story should also help improve delivery.
