Projects

AGALI Scale Up

Leveraging AGALI’s success in transforming adolescent girls' lives globally, this new project will provide training, grants and technical assistance to AGALI grantees advocating for girl-friendly policies, programs and funding. In addition to improving adolescent girls’ health, education and livelihoods, this project will increase economic opportunities for indigenous adolescent girls by incorporating economic empowerment into the AGALI model.

 

AGALI – Phase V

The Adolescent Girls’ Advocacy and Leadership Initiative (AGALI) will deepen the impact of its current capacity building, grant making, and technical assistance by strengthening the leadership capacity of a new group of AGALI Fellows in Central America, while also providing ongoing support to AGALI alumni and grantees in both Central America and Africa.
