GLOWA is a survivor-led counter trafficking NGO in Special Consultative Status with the UN ECOSOC

GLOWA (Global Welfare Association), is a counter-trafficking NGO, based in Bamenda in the North West Republic of Cameroon. The charity was established in 2004 by Jamils Achunji Anguaseh, himself a survivor of child-trafficking, who was determined to prevent further trafficking within his community and to provide much needed support to victims. Under his leadership, GLOWA has grown significantly over the past ten years with many other survivors of trafficking joining the team, bringing with them first-hand experiences that continually inform GLOWA’s programs and investments. Today, GLOWA is organised around programs to identify trafficking scams, educate communities, lobby policy-makers and deliver programs to help in the rehabilitation of victims. GLOWA enjoys special consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Committee (ECOSOC) and is also a member of the Commonwealth 8.7 Network, a global network of 60+ local organisations working to eradicate contemporary forms of slavery and human trafficking.

Training alone does not create a sustainable livelihood.
A person may complete vocational training and still lack:
• startup capital
• equipment
• customers
• business knowledge
• digital marketing skills
• savings
• mentorship
• market connections
That is why GLOWA's livelihood thinking goes beyond vocational skills.
We seek to connect learning with entrepreneurship, incubation, startup support, coaching, savings, digital tools and market opportunities.
For survivors and other vulnerable groups, the objective is not simply to learn a skill.
It is to create a realistic pathway toward income, independence and resilience.
The training room should be a starting point, not the destination.

Poverty is more than a lack of income. It can shape a person's exposure to risk.
Economic vulnerability can affect whether a family can keep a child in school.
Whether a survivor can rebuild a livelihood.
Whether a woman can leave an abusive situation.
Whether a displaced household can meet basic needs.
Whether a young person is vulnerable to harmful offers of work or exploitation.
This is why GLOWA sees livelihoods as connected to protection and recovery.
Our approach is not simply:
skills → training → graduation.
It is:
skills → entrepreneurship → productive assets → market access → income → resilience.
Protection must address immediate harm.
Recovery must address what comes next.
Dignified livelihoods can be part of that journey.

Food security begins with people who have the opportunity and resources to produce, access and afford nutritious food.
The 2026 World Food Day theme is:
“Innovate today. Nourish tomorrow.”
Innovation does not always require sophisticated technology.
Sometimes innovation means adapting traditional knowledge.
Using available land more effectively.
Improving production practices.
Connecting producers to markets.
Reducing waste.
Or helping women turn small productive activities into sustainable sources of income.
Through initiatives such as GardenPower and other livelihood approaches, GLOWA explores how food production can contribute to household resilience and women's economic opportunity.
When people can produce. When they can earn. When families can eat. Resilience grows.

Rural women grow more than food.
They grow household income.
They support children.
They preserve knowledge.
They build businesses.
They strengthen food security.
They contribute to community resilience.
And when women have greater access to productive assets, skills, markets and financial opportunities, the benefits can extend beyond one individual household.
GLOWA's livelihood approach seeks to connect skills and productive activities with entrepreneurship, income generation and longer-term resilience.
Because economic empowerment is not simply about earning money.
It is also about agency, dignity, choice and the ability to withstand shocks.

12/10/2026

Resilience starts where people live.
The 2026 International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction theme is:
“Resilience Starts at Home.”
For families affected by conflict, displacement, poverty or other risks, household resilience matters.
Can families access reliable information?
Do they know where to seek help?
Can children remain connected to education?
Can households meet essential needs?
Do women and caregivers have the resources and decision-making space they need?
Are protection and referral mechanisms accessible?
Resilient communities are built from resilient households.
And resilient households need knowledge, resources, services and supportive communities.
Building resilience means helping people prepare, respond, recover and rebuild.

What if one book could reach many girls?
For a child in a conflict-affected community, the absence of learning materials can become another barrier to staying in school.
One Book Many Futures is built around a simple idea:
A quality learning resource does not have to serve only one child.
With a structured circulation system, one book can move from one learner to another, extending its educational value while helping families and schools manage limited resources.
Our vision is to strengthen access to Mathematics, Science, English and French learning materials for girls while encouraging reading, learning and continued participation in education.
Because sometimes opportunity begins with something as simple as having the right book at the right time.
One book. Many readers. Many possibilities. Many futures.

Every girl deserves a childhood. Every girl deserves a future.
The 2026 International Day of the Girl theme is:
“End child marriage and invest in girls’ rights!”
Child marriage can interrupt education, limit choices and expose girls to serious protection and health risks.
Ending it requires more than awareness.
It requires families and communities that protect girls.
Education systems that keep girls learning.
Services that respond to violence and exploitation.
Economic opportunities that reduce vulnerability.
And girls whose voices are taken seriously.
At GLOWA, we believe investing in girls means investing in their safety, education, dignity, agency and future.
Let girls learn.
Let girls grow.
Let girls lead.
Let girls choose their futures.

Survivors should not only be asked to tell their stories. They should have a voice in shaping the solutions.
This year's World Mental Health Day theme is:
“Lived experiences heard: real voices, real change.”
For GLOWA, this principle extends beyond mental health.
People who have experienced exploitation, violence, displacement or other forms of harm carry knowledge that cannot simply be learned from a textbook.
Their experiences can help identify what works.
What fails.
What needs to change.
And what recovery should look like.
Survivor participation should therefore move beyond storytelling.
From being heard to being involved.
From being consulted to co-creating solutions.
From surviving to leading.

07/10/2026

A girl's future should not be decided by vulnerability, poverty or violence.
Every girl deserves the opportunity to learn.
To grow.
To be heard.
To make informed choices.
To develop her talents.
And to imagine a future beyond the circumstances into which she was born.
As we approach International Day of the Girl, GLOWA is reaffirming a simple principle:
Girls should not have to surrender their childhood or their education in order to survive.
Investing in girls means investing in protection, education, health, opportunity and voice.

05/10/2026

Teachers do more than teach.
A teacher may be the first adult to notice that a child is withdrawing, frequently absent, distressed or facing a protection concern.
Teachers can help children remain connected to learning.
They can recognize warning signs.
They can provide a trusted point of contact.
And, when appropriate systems exist, they can help connect children to protection and support services.
This is why child protection and education cannot be treated as separate issues.
Every child needs someone who notices. Every school needs systems that respond.
