Resume
Fomålet med interventionen er at kapacitetsudvikle og styrke lokalbefolkningen i Injil distriktet i Herat provins, Afghanistan i at kunne advokere for deres sundhedsrettigheder og forbedre deres adgang til sundhedsydelser. Målet er at træne, etablere og give 20 advocacy grupper redskaber til at kunne blive i stand til at advokere på vegne af deres respektive communities. Den afghanske NGO RRAA vil ligeledes blive kapacitetsudviklede i advocacy, så de herefter vil kunne fortsætte indsatsen med at styrke lokalbefolkningens viden om advocacy og kapacitetsopbygge dem i at advokere for egne sundhedsrettigheder. Dette vil styrke RRAA i rollen som en aktiv civilsamfunds aktør, der er stand til at skabe bæredygtige sociale forandring gennem styrkelse af det afghanske civilsamfund.
