Cross-Cutting Actions

GC4A's cross-cutting initiatives span across the breadth of our program sectors to tackle the underlying causes of poverty, and place special emphasis on working with women, men, girls and boys to create lasting social change; with specific emphasis on achieving gender equality, tackling HIV/AIDs pandemic and ensuring peaceful coexistence, accountability/good governance at all levels. For example, our Peace Building, WASH, FSL and Education initiatives uses the convening power of sports/drama etc., as a vehicle to minimize the effects of poverty on youth while working to advance gender equality, develop life skills, promote health education, provide psychosocial support and create income-generating activities. Issues such as climate change adaptation, protection etc. are mainstreamed in our programmes whenever practicable.
