Many millions of people in East Africa continue to live in relentless poverty, excluded from the benefits of economic growth taking place in the region. Among the most vulnerable people all are those affected by disability and HIV who are often disregarded, stigmatised and denied their basic human rights so that they lack self worth, opportunity and hope.
Advantage Afirca's vision is for such vulnerable children, women and men to be respected as equals, free from poverty, discrimination and fear, and to be more self-reliant.
To this end, our Strategic Plan for 2020 to 2023 has the goal of 'Better Lives for the Most Vulnerable People in East Africa'.
The Plan sets out our objectives for reaching that goal through direct action with our partner organsations and by contributing to changing the attitudes, policies and practices that keep people in poverty. It also has an objective of creating a more resilient asnd sustainable organisation.
