Protectting The Rights And Dignity Of The Vulnerable/Marginallized Populations
At COWACDI, we believe that Peace in our communities can only be achieved collaboratively, at local, national, regional, and international levels. Individuals, communities, civil society organizations, government, regional bodies, and the private sector all play a role in building peace. To sustain positive change, everyone affected by a violent conflict must be involved in the process of building peace. We believe that peace is more than just the absence of violence. Peacebuilding organizations such as COWACDI ultimately strive to promote what is described as ‘positive peace.
At COWACDI, we promote inclusive participation by ensuring gender equity and the participation of women and girls in development activities, by challenging harmful socio-cultural norms that make women and girls in our communities suffer systematic disadvantages, and respond to humanitarian emergencies to alleviate the suffering of people affected by conflict and disaster.
Our mandates are to empower poor and marginalized people to make informed decisions about their lives and engage meaningfully in their development. Encourage the inclusion of women and marginalized groups in decision-making processes. Improve gender equity and human rights, greater equity, and respect for human rights.
At, COWACDI, we believe the choices that young people make today and, in the future,influenced by the people and events around them will contribute to the possibility of peace, stability, and progress in their communities at large. Hence the need for proper orientation about their right and privileges in life as regards humanitarian responses in their communities.
Investing in Young women’s economic empowerment is essential to achieving gender equality. Enabling young women to learn throughout their lives and develop key skills can transform lives, communities, and entire countries. Meet Hafsa Hassan, she is a beneficiary of our skill acquisition program and is now a professional phone repair agent in her local community. Changing narratives!!!
Empowering women and girls and promoting gender equality are crucial to accelerating sustainable development. Ending all forms of discrimination against women and girls is not only a basic human right, but it also has a multiplier effect across all other development areas.
Young people must have the opportunity to lead change within their communities. When girls, boys, women, and men are empowered with the skills they need for working life, they thrive. They can support themselves, their families, and their communities.
