Area of Operation
Mainstreaming gender in livelihood programs
The organization has been engaged in empowering the community in livelihood programs through food security and microenterprise activities for income generation(economic empowerment).
This has also involved people living with HIV and AIDS given their vulnerabilities and the crosscutting factors in the spread of HIV/AIDS. In a bid to address economic vulnerabilities of women in the community, the organization in partnership with the government of Japan constructed an Economic Empowerment Centre to nurture talents, innovative skills and creativity for meaningful socio-economic development and entrepreneurship in Homa Bay County.
The organization also purchased water pumps for horticultural farming for HIV/AIDS support groups to address the insecurity. This has seen an improvement in general health status and improved self esteem among PLHIVs and their families.
