GLOMEF’s GENDER FOCUS
As the African Development Bank has stated “eliminating gender inequality and empowering women could raise the productive potential of one billion Africans, delivering a huge boost to the continent’s development potential.” Supporting women economic and leadership participation with access to economic ventures, leadership roles and safe homes help themselves and their families to escape poverty. Women are often marginalized in development and decisions making that affect their lives and the entire household. Women make up the majority of those who suffer disparities in the resource distribution affecting many aspects of their lives. Moreover, the damage from disasters, pandemics, and conflicts threatens women development. GLOMEF has adopted international standard safeguarding policies that promote women’s rights and development. Our communication strategies are gender sensitive and all community initiatives mainstream gender issues.
