Project details:
Reviewed existing legal and policy frameworks to identify gaps related to protection, gender equality, and accountability in humanitarian and development contexts. Provided technical input to align national policies with international standards and human rights principles. Facilitated stakeholder engagement sessions—including government bodies, civil society, and development partners—to ensure inclusive consultation and consensus building.
As part of a broader governance strengthening initiative, AVC supported policy alignment by leading participatory reviews, synthesizing stakeholder feedback, and producing policy briefs and recommendations. This approach enhanced institutional understanding of legal obligations, promoted coordinated policy reform, and laid the foundation for more inclusive and accountable governance systems.
