Championing a localization movement

We focus on localization movement to connects local communities/ vulnerable populations to local actors (local authorities, CSOs, small businesses)  and amplifies their voices at the relevant national levels. We uphold the human rights of  vulnerable populations and recognizes that there is knowledge, expertise and commitment at all levels, but vulnerable communities/ populations must have space to influence, access to resources and the power to take decisions.
