Exploring alternatives to current development programming starts with creating avenues for inclusion - of women, men, children, persons with disabilities, older persons, and other marginalized sectors of society - towards developing sustainable measures for achieving human flourishing. A2D Project commits to principles of inclusion and social justice as indispensable aspects of sustainable development.

A2D Project supports the development of local capacities to respond to disaster events and engages with communities of practice to promote quality and accountability in humanitarian response in the Philippines.

In a world increasingly perceived to be at risk of disasters, including the risks brought about by climate change, A2D Project works on the areas of disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation particularly in creating spaces for inclusion and participation of marginalized sectors in DRR/CCA strategizing and programming.
