On the 13th of June 2024, The USAID activity โ€œBreaking Barriers, Building Better Livelihood: Integrated GBV Response in Timor Lesteโ€ hosted an impactful advocacy meeting with local authorities and social agents in Bobonaro Municipality.

With diverse representation from local authorities, partners, and relevant entities, the meeting served as a bridge to introduce our activities, impacts, and goals to the local community. Stakeholders expressed gratitude for the initiative and provided valuable suggestions for effective implementation. It was clear that “Breaking Barriers” resonated deeply, highlighting its potential to catalyze positive change and drive community development.

Excitingly, weโ€™ve set tentative dates for activities to begin in July across Bobonaro, Maliana, Balibo, Atabae, Cailaco, and Lolotoe.

HAMNASA is eager to proceed and looks forward to collaborating with local authorities to ensure the success of our efforts.
