Together, we are a force for change. Embracing unity and mutual support, we foster growth and prosperity for all. Let's embody SDG 1—No Poverty—and create a world where solidarity and collaboration uplift every individual and community.
This month, Palabek refugee settlement makes 7 years since its inception. The deteriorating living conditions which leads to more community violence calls for more attention in peace building initiatives. We supported refugee talent shows as a way of bringing youth together.
"Just completed an enriching online course on GCED! Grateful for the knowledge gained and ready to make a difference. #GCED"

If a woman wants to come back after a break up, there’s one golden rule that you must consider “has she been with anyone else?” If she hasn’t been with anyone else, this means she’s probably genuinely worked all the stuff that created a rift between you both and it’s kinda good…
Our office compound is “shaving their hair” —:).

With little funding, RLO can drive action to the needed change. It’s important to open doors to funding to RLOs. Thank you @GRYN_NETWORK for funding @theleads_ ‘s climate project.
