Our theory of change for “Roots for Change: Youth and women Led Action” is based on the belief that by engaging and empowering local communities using faith actors and traditional rulers as influencers through youths and women engagements we can create positive environmental, social, and economic outcomes that will benefit both people and nature in the long run to address development issues.
