To contribute towards the development of a peaceful and inclusive society with a specific focus on women and children.

ACN believes that social issues are both causes and consequences of poverty. ACN works together with local communities to address the key social issues in communities including child marriage, violence against women and human trafficking. Women’s empowerment, education and economic independence enhances the capacity of women in society which then contributes to the wellbeing and development of the whole community. ACN aims to empower women and encourages increased participation of women in decision making and income generating activities.
