CONTEXT :
As armed violence transcends separate sectors, a comprehensive cross-sector response is needed.

HI being a multi-mandated organization facilitates these synergies through collective comprehensive programming within the AVR sector and beyond, facilitating maximized impact.

Seeking to better articulate the catalytic contribution of HMA to armed violence reduction
