Our next blog in our 'Accelerating Action on Gender Equality' series comes from All We Can's partner SHIFSD LIBERIA. We've spent the last 12 months spotlighting SHIFSD and their incredible work around adult literacy and vocational skills training programmes. Please give their blog a read, it's fantastic and they are doing wonderful work for communities (and in particular women) in Liberia!

AGLIT+: ACCELERATING ACTION ON GENDER EQUALITY Our next blog comes from AGLIT+, one of our partners from Malawi.

The combined literacy and health education programme, is a non-clinical health intervention that was introduced as one way of tackling poor reproductive health of young women and adolescent girls.

LENT: MONTHLY MATTERS All We Can works with over 20 local partners in low-income countries around the world. While they are all tackling poverty and injustice in their own unique way, the barriers they encounter to running a sustainable organisation have many common threads. In Grace's story, we tell a fictionalised tale that explores the real issues our partners face, and how your regular support can make a real difference. Based on stories and anecdotes from our partners, and told in an exploratory play style, this video series is perfect for churches and small groups wanting to explore how to respond to global poverty and injustice. In part 2, we explore one of the main issues many of our local partners encounter - the constant need to apply for funding, and the various hoops that must be jumped through to acquire it.
