Units of Aid

Activity is defined as programmes and projects. We frame our work around 2 pillars of work: capacity strengthening and advocacy with the aim of contributing to 2 outcomes: Outcome 1: Civil society has increased co-ordination, understanding, capacity, agency and strategic alliances, which contribute to stronger, more inclusive movements for SRHR and use these to mobilise communities for transformation of social norms and to advocate to national key influencers and decision makers for positive changes to laws, policies and financial allocations for: (a) Elimination of stigma and discrimination based on SOGI and the impact of failure to do so on health; (b) access to AAAQ comprehensive SRHR services as part of UHC for LGBTI persons, women, adolescent girls and young women; (c) access to safe abortion for all women in all their diversity; and (d) access to AAAQ HIV prevention services for LGBTI persons, women, adolescent girls and young women. Outcome 2: Key influencers and decision makers have increased understanding of the need to realise the rights to bodily autonomy and integrity and fulfil SRHR and of the impact of failure to do so on health and use this to catalyse positive changes to laws, policies and financial allocations for: (a) Elimination of stigma and discrimination based on SOGI and the impact of failure to do so on health; (b) access to AAAQ comprehensive SRHR services as part of UHC for LGBTI persons, women, adolescent girls and young women; (c) access to safe abortion for all women in all their diversity; and (d) access to AAAQ HIV prevention services for LGBTI persons, women, adolescent girls and young women. We will report on progress towards the outcomes through capacity strengthening and advocacy activities at regional and national levels.
