Key Information

AMPLIFY works with multiple stakeholders to facilitate and coordinate a systematic approach to creating large-scale social impact. AMPLIFY works collectively to bring local organizations together to define common goals, develop best practices, create common measurement tools and design holistic programs and advocacy for the communities they serve. In 2017, AMPLIFY launched a co-creative process with 18 partners across Tanzania, Rwanda, Uganda and Kenya. All 18 partners provide programming for adolescent girls through multiple interventions: formal education, healthcare, community-based programming, working with communities and specifically men/boys, and economic empowerment. All these programs deliver a holistic model of care for young women that focuses on transformational change.
