Description
AMPLIFY is a collective of community-driven organizations collaborating to create a community-based alternative to traditional development scale. Focused on building agentic capacity in girls, AMPLIFY utilizes intentional collaboration to share best practices, develop community driven metrics and create large scale joint advocacy campaigns in order to accentuate the unparalleled impact that community-driven organizations have in transforming the lives of adolescent girls. AMPLIFY's mission is to AMPLIFY the voices, work and impact of local organizations focused on the power and potential of adolescent girls. We do this by strengthening organizational efficiencies, creating opportunities for collaborative learning, building evidence, and engaging in global policy and practice fora. AMPLIFY’s work as a collective learning and development hub seeks to build more effective organizations -- ones that are able to better communicate to a wider array of prospective donors and work together to create broader impact in eastern Africa.
