Theory of Change
The Need
Children and youth in Lesotho face complex challenges shaped by poverty, family disruption and limited access to support systems.
These realities can affect mental wellbeing, learning and long-term opportunity.
Our Approach
We work alongside communities to strengthen local support systems, encourage participation and create opportunities for young people to build skills and confidence.
This approach is grounded in partnership, trust and community leadership.
Impact Pillars
Five interconnected Impact Pillars guide this work: mental health and resilience, gender equity, youth leadership and education, community support, and sexual and reproductive health.
