Hope in Action for Women & Girls is grounded in a simple belief:
When women and girls have access to education, economic opportunities, emotional support, and strong community systems, they are able to thrive and shape brighter futures for themselves, their families, and their communities.
Community-Driven
We listen first. All programs are shaped through direct conversations with women, girls, families, and community partners to ensure relevance and impact.
Women-Centered
Our programs prioritize the needs, wellbeing, and leadership of women and girls — placing their voices at the center of every decision.
Trauma-Informed
Many of the women and girls we serve have experienced displacement, stress, or violence. We prioritize safety, healing, dignity, and emotional wellbeing in every program.
Integrated Support
We combine education, health, protection, and economic opportunity to strengthen resilience and open pathways to long-term progress.
Locally Led Solutions
As a women-led Ethiopian organization, we ensure that design, staffing, and decision-making reflect local knowledge, culture, and lived experience.
Partnership and Collaboration
We work with community groups, local institutions, and international partners to expand reach, strengthen systems, and create sustainable change.
Evidence-Informed Programming
We use data, learning, and monitoring to guide decisions, improve programs, and ensure accountability to the communities we serve and the partners who support our work.
