Discrimination halts development and the people affected usually suffer from poverty. It is therefore very important to recognize the existence of discrimination within different groups and to empower the people affected. We believe that empowerment can be done through encouragement, different training programs and by creating awareness about existence of discrimination and on human rights.

The bad practices of our culture have lead to a lot of economic fall in our community, since some people are been favored. It is very important to promote unity in our cultural practices and also the good practice of the culture. Organizing cultural manifestation programmes to sensitize the young people and youths on the good practice and learning of different cultures, will greatly improves on the cultural development of our community.

We encourage the conservation of our bio-diversity, by organizing training workshops, to educate most especially the youths on how to conserve our natural resource, for greater development in the future.
