The Spotlight Initiative is a global, multi-year initiative focused on eliminating all forms of violence against women and girls (VAWG) launched by the European Union (EU) and the United Nations (UN). The initiative is aimed at achieving gender equality and women’s empowerment in line with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development by placing all forms of violence against women and girls at the center of its efforts. In partnership with UN Women Liberia, Development Education Network-Liberia (DEN-L), implemented a component of the EU/UN Spotlight Initiative under grant number 009-2020 to build the capacity of women’s rights advocates and relevant Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) to use social accountability mechanisms and strengthen their capacity on advocacy, management, administration, finance, HR, reporting, including resource mobilization. The intervention was implemented in five (5) counties including Grand Gedeh, Nimba, Lofa, Montserrado, and Grand Cape Mount across Liberia.
