The last seven years in an ongoing armed conflict, Girlshave experienced formidable and complex challenges due to rampant sexual abuse and exploitation, Unwanted pregnancy, forced marriages, Denial of resources, discrimination and gender biases. The discrimination is now assuming new forms. 

While all women and girls, in general, face socio-cultural challenges, these are more overarching and complex in rural areas. Disadvantaged by a lack of access than ability, rural women remain subjugated by want of equality and equity.

Children are greatly affected and increases malnutrition, child mortality severe health complications. The whole community decays, poverty is in the increase when women and girls are left behind. WHEN WOMEN AND GIRLS TRIUMPH, THE COMMUNITY PROSPERS AND FLOURISHES, GROWS; There is vigor and armor.
