This project aims to enhance equitable development and empowerment for women, girls, adolescents, their families and communities in select areas of Asia with high levels of poverty, human resource deficits, inadequate health and early childhood education systems, and entrenched gender inequalities. This project works to advance gender equality and widen opportunities for some of the poorest and most vulnerable people in Asia, focusing on the empowerment of women, girls, and adolescents as the key to addressing the root causes of gender inequality and global poverty. The project responds to the interconnected challenges experienced by women, girls, and their communities through four complementary components: foundations for health, foundations for children, advancing gender equality through civil society, and advancing Canadian champions for development. Project activities include: (1) providing training on management and delivery of gender and adolescent friendly health services, with a focus on sexual and reproductive health; (2) extending sexual and reproductive health services to communities through teleconsultations and e-health; (3) empowering community health workers to screen the nutritional status of children under five years old; (4) developing curricula and resources for early childhood development, for life skills training materials for adolescents and for the identification and response to gender-based violence; and (5) leadership training for young women.
