Peace is essential for both mental and physical well-being. 🤝

On this International Day of Living Together in Peace, WHAE reaffirms its commitment to building peaceful and healthy communities through its Peace Education Program.

WHAE recognizes that maintaining peace is a matter of both mental and physical health. Through monthly peace education sessions, the program engages local unit and GOT members to promote a culture of peace and strengthen conflict resolution skills at all levels.

By empowering communities with knowledge and dialogue, we are contributing to a more peaceful, inclusive, and resilient society.

Together, let’s build lasting peace—starting from our communities.

Safe Workplaces, Healthy Women!

Safety and Health at Work, we emphasize the importance of creating safe, healthy, and supportive environments for women everywhere.

Women’s health is closely connected to the conditions in which staff and program participants live and work. WHAE has put Safeguarding and Emergency Management policies and procedures in place to ensure safety at home, in offices, or in the community which is essential to protect staff and program participants' well-being and dignity.

At WHAE, we continue to advocate for improved health, safety, and awareness for women and girls across all settings.

As part of our commitment, we also provide a mini daycare service to support working mothers, helping them balance their responsibilities while ensuring their children are cared for in a safe environment.

Together, let’s build a safer and healthier future for all women.

As part of WHAE's nutrition education campaign, urban gardening is designed to improve the nutrition intake and nutrition security among local units. WHAE provides seeds (such as Swiss chard, cabbage, cabbage, carrots, and tomatoes) are provided yearly to all local units to plant in their backyards or in pots.
