ESFGA professional orientation session
At ACPEJ , we are driven by one ultimate goal: to contribute to a better world for all.

Help us Make the difference
We believe young people, even ex-combatants, are a positive force in the community and can contribute to peace/protection in our community.
That a single action can make a difference here, and that all of these actions can affect the world. These young people through the theaters and in folklore sensitize the community so that it becomes an environment of peace for women, and children and to be able to fight against all violence and those based on gender. Through advocacy and dissemination actions, our team works tirelessly every day to contribute to the good of all.
Women empowerment
ACPEJ also supports the development of village savings and credit associations (AVEC) and MUSO, which allow members to pool their savings. 80% of whom are women, and can also take out small loans to finance income-generating activities or projects of community interest, such as cereal banks. Repayment rates approach 100% and interest rates allow the community bank to be independent.
