A Framework for Change

Our work is guided by a theory of change framework that outlines the steps necessary to achieve our long-term goals. This framework helps us to:

  • Identify Root Causes: We understand that domestic abuse is rooted in gender inequality, societal norms, and economic factors, which will help us to address intersectionality.
  • Develop Effective Interventions: We create programs that address these root causes and provide immediate support to survivors.
  • Measure Our Impact: We continuously evaluate our work to ensure that we are making a difference.

By following this framework, we are able to provide comprehensive and effective support to survivors of domestic abuse.

I couldn’t leave my husband because he told me he would cancel my visa. His family in Afghanistan would find me and kill me. He told me there is no help for people like me in this country and the police want to send me back. BCWA and [my support worker] saved my life.- Bibi
