April 9,2025: Advancing Gender Objectives for AHRA’s Technical Assistance
April 09, 2025
Today, AHRA Secretariat, along with Pascal Tanguay, Shona Schonning, Nick Crofts, Doan Thanh Tung (Light House) organized to continue shaping the gender-focused objectives for technical assistance to AHRA. This session focused on refining our approach to support women, girls, and LGBTI communities within harm reduction frameworks across Southeast Asia.
Key Highlights:
- The group reviewed and refined the gender objectives for AHRA’s technical assistance, focusing on how each objective can support women, girls, and LGBTI communities who use drugs.
- Facilitated discussions centered on identifying key actions that the TA can take to enhance AHRA’s services, including specific support for gender-sensitive harm reduction models.
- The team also discussed practical steps to ensure that gender considerations are embedded in all aspects of AHRA’s future work.
A big thanks to Pascal, Shona, Nick, Tung, and the entire team for their collaboration in formulating these critical objectives. This is an important step towards ensuring that AHRA’s technical assistance is responsive to the unique needs of these communities.
