Our Projects
Our projects focus on advocating for women’s and girls’ rights. WAVES addresses sexual and reproductive health and rights. The program emerged from years of experience working in their communities and witnessing the atrocities against women. The organization collaborates with many other organizations to campaign and advocate for these rights and fight against the injustices committed against women and female children. To do this work, WAVES collaborates with multiple organizations.
