The Association pour la Défense et la Protection de l’Enfant et de la Femme (ADEPE-F/ESPOIR) is a new association and this is their first time receiving funding.

The project Gender and Equity aims to bring about change in the attitudes of households employing the domestic labour by young Nigerien women and girls.

To this end, it is important to engage with the domestic helpers by informing them of their rights and the steps to be taken to avoid or manage situations of abuse, exploitation and/or violence, and on the population of Niger in general on the risks and dangers incurred in cases of abuse, exploitation and/or violence against domestic helpers.
