Equitas and its partners play a key role in providing human rights education training to effect and sustain social change in the region in Francophone Africa.

In Senegal, the Advancing Equality through Human Rights Education (AEHRE) project aims to build safer and more equitable communities where key actors, including children and youth, exercise their leadership to promote gender equality and greater respect for human rights.

In Burkina Faso, Equitas works in partnership with local organizations to contribute to the empowerment of women and girls by providing them with the tools and knowledge to promote gender equality in their communities and around the world.
