PARENT AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

Building relationships with participants’ parents and like-minded community organizations is central to our efforts to help build an ecosystem that supports gender equality in the communities where we work and is essential for the success and health of our programs. This means regularly holding spaces for parents, school principals, and community organizations working on child protection to come together and share, learn, and deepen collaboration on behalf of the girls we serve.

Through these meetings, our partners feel how much we respect them and value their time and opinions and we benefit from hearing their insights and perspectives about what is working and not working. In turn, Lidè has the chance to share our reflections and outline our program progress and priorities.
