What we do
• Women projects: AFIADI provides the capacity building program where we train women in communities how to promote the concept of self-help among target communities in order to contribute towards their own development and social well-being. This is a process through which women are mobilized to identify, understand and overcome the structural and underlying causes of under development.

Introduction of income generating projects into their groups of credit & savings. Introduction to knowledge concerning maternal health using the sensitizing and advocacy program.
• Agriculture: Agriculture is one of the major activities of AFIADI promoted in rural areas amongst the poor remote households. We look at agriculture as an economic empowerment through which families are able to meet their sustainable livelihoods. We promote subsistence farming among the local farmers. We do this through Agricultural skills training, entrepreneurship, credit and saving, growing of different types of food crops. We also intend to enable and motivate children and the youths to engage in agriculture.
