Girl Child Education

- leads to healthier communities and nations, reducing maternal and infant mortality and malnutrition, stunting, HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases.
- reduces child marriage and gender-based violence.
- unlocks women’s leadership for policy change that benefits everyone.
- drives economic development, leading to higher productivity and income, tackling youth unemployment and instability.
- Is one of the most effective ways of tackling climate change, because investing in girls’ education is the foundation for female leadership for climate action, including in climate-smart agriculture, leading to better nutrition, increased resilience to climate shocks, reduced emissions, and a more sustainable future for us all.

Orphanage
DFS International implements a Child-Focused Community Development (CFCD) approach, which includes program activities in the areas of food & nutrition, health & water, education, shelters and livelihoods. We work with vulnerable and at-risk children, their caregivers, and communities to cultivate the social, economic, cultural, and environmental conditions needed for families to thrive. Our goal is to improve the food and nutrition security of mothers and children, which we believe can be achieved when:
- parents have the skills they need to raise well-nourished and thriving children;
- communities are clean and keep children healthy;
- children get the education they need to grow up to have good jobs and to raise healthy children themselves; and
- parents have the skills and resources they need to feed their families.
