Focus on social and cultural rights: the right to food, the right to education, the right to health care, the right to safe water and sanitation, and sustainable development.

CDRM&CDS will facilitate the empowerment of CBOs and congregations to improve food security and nutrition by providing capacity building and support for appropriate, environmentally friendly and sustainable integrated farming systems based on indigenous knowledge and to increase income by facilitating access to skill training and micro credit to enable them to engage in agricultural and small-scale industries activities. Furthermore, CDRM&CDS will facilitate the empowerment of communities to enable accessibility to and availability of both formal and non-formal education, primary health care services, and safe water and sanitation.
