We are dedicated to creating a safe, dignified, and mentally healthy environment for children. Understanding that speaking up against harm can be learned, we have integrated child protection and child rights governance in school and community settings to protect children from violence, exploitation, and abuse.

Our Catch Up Clubs (CuCs) connect well-being and core competencies by engaging them through play. We are with children throughout their development, starting in their earliest years. Our life-cycle approach focuses on a healthy transition from adolescence to young adulthood by building health awareness and skills.

Ensuring a healthy childhood is the start of greater opportunities. Our digital diagnostic app proves that tech for good is innovation with limited capacity, streamlining diagnosis and referrals for children under five.

Security is Key

We foster protection as a community’s priority, working with schools and influential circles to inform them on issues like child protection, including child marriage and gender-based violence. Our engagement allows local leaders and youth advocates to take the lead, running awareness campaigns tailored to reach everyone across communities. These groups work with our school management committees to enhance child protection mechanisms at home and in schools, promoting safety in all community spaces. Our sensitization workshops for community leaders and conduct capacity-building initiatives for community groups, children, and governing bodies involved in efforts to address and prevent child marriage.

Learning can be Fun

Education is engaging for children (grades III—V) in our CuCs through play-based learning. We mobilize learning through an evidence-based approach to enhance children’s literacy and numeracy skills and social-emotional learning (SEL), with a focus on those who are behind or at risk of dropping out of school. Our volunteers are community learning facilitators who make education fun through activities.

Digitize, Diagnose, and Deliver

Our IMCI app is automating diagnosis for tech-for-good health. The app provides counseling, accelerates referrals or treatment options, and guides care-seeking behaviors to ensure timely treatment and prevent deaths. Automation enables the IMCI to track healthcare delivery and outcomes, allowing the government to monitor progress, identify gaps, and make data-driven decisions to enhance child health services. Our technology-first approach for IMCI automates healthcare registration systems to archive patients’ histories and share them across healthcare facilities. 

It's Time She Led

Women and girls are twice as likely to be neglected (or you can use overlooked) from NEETS, and that prompts us to create opportunities for their inclusion. Our approach empowers women-led organizations (WLOs) to build their technical capacities to promote entrepreneurship, inclusive financial solutions, and women's leadership. They are also more equipped to mobilize campaigns to change public perceptions and challenge social norms that hinder women’s access to economic opportunities. As part of this development, we empower them to advocate for national agendas and policies that support their economic empowerment. Recognizing that inclusivity is only possible through multi-level engagement, we convene government officials on an advisory committee and engage grassroots WLOs to drive comprehensive action.
