What We Do
Gender, Empowerment, Socioeconomic leadership for poverty reduction and Protection
The CFEE’s work in this sector and considers it our one of core sectors: is largely focused
on gender and protection mainstreaming, gender based violence prevention, mental health
trauma healing and therapy (MHPSS), community education for social cohesion with IDPs,
Returnees, Refugees, multi-sectoral response and risk mitigation.
The CFEE’s gender transformative programming largely focuses on women’s economic
empowerment through skills building, climate smart and adaptive approaches/techniques in
farming, marketing skills, good management of capital, programming as a part of recovery,
resilience and reintegration. Gender transformative programming also integrates part of
peacebuilding activities to address underlying gender inequalities that increase women and
girls’ vulnerability to GBV. This not only increases their capacity to own their lives but and is
a fulfilment of their rights. Collaboration with other service providers in SGBV cases detection
and case referrals is central to CFEE’s response efforts as GBV survivors are helped access
the multi sectoral response services.
