Empowering Young Voices
We train and mentor young girls and boys to become confident leaders and advocates in their communities. Through workshops, peer groups, and leadership activities, they gain knowledge about their rights and the harmful effects of child marriage. This model encourages youth to raise their voices, influence positive change, and promote education as a priority for every child.
Engaging Men as Allies
We actively involve fathers, brothers, religious leaders, and male community members in awareness sessions and open dialogues. By encouraging men and boys to become allies, we help challenge harmful traditions and gender stereotypes. This model promotes shared responsibility in protecting girlsā rights and supporting their education and future opportunities.
Protection & Referral Support
We establish confidential and safe reporting systems where girls at risk of early or forced marriage can seek help without fear. Through strong referral networks, we connect them with legal aid, protection services, community mediators, and relevant authorities. This ensures immediate support and long-term safety for vulnerable children.
Emotional Care & Counseling
We provide professional counseling and emotional support to girls who are affected by or at risk of forced marriage. Through one-on-one sessions and support groups, we help them cope with trauma, rebuild self-confidence, and regain hope for their future. This model ensures their mental well-being while supporting their continued education and personal growth.

Child Safe Spaces
Child psychosocial well-being refers to the emotional, social, and psychological development of a child. It encompasses their ability to form relationships, express their feelings and navigate the world around them. A childās psychosocial well-being is shaped by a variety of factors including genetics, environment, experiences and relationships with others. A positive and supportive environment, nurturing relationships with caregivers and opportunities for socialization and learning all contribute to a childās psychosocial well-being. Conversely, adverse experiences such as neglect, abuse or trauma can negatively impact a childās psychosocial development and lead to long-term consequences. It is important for caregivers, educators and mental health professionals to prioritize a childās psychosocial well-being in order to promote their healthy development and overall well-being
