Cross-Cutting Themes

Although the bricks and mortar of CHF International's work has long been integrally bound to communities, habitat and finance, we sometimes engage our field staff in other critical initiatives that are in line with our overall mission.

Inside Cross-Cutting Themes

HIV/AIDS

Investing in Youth

Gender Mainstreaming

Gender Mainstreaming

CHF International places a priority on the engagement of men and women in productive opportunities through attention to gender mainstreaming practices. As a result, our projects have made it possible for women to contribute, and for men and women to collaborate more effectively toward building prosperous and peaceful societies.
