with a population of 428,800 spread across 16 districts, confronts significant challenges
due to its mountainous terrain, with 96% of the population residing in rural areas. This leads to
limited public services, high poverty, unemployment, and vulnerability to natural disasters.
Additionally, there are issues with agricultural productivity, electricity access, and gender
disparities in education. 

ADWSO addresses these challenges by enhancing livelihood programs and promoting peace
and community cohesion initiatives. This includes supporting income-generation activities within
the community, implementing sustainable agriculture practices, and promoting gender-inclusive
education and employment opportunities. These efforts foster resilience and sustainable
development in the region.
