The mission of Andar is to “facilitate processes of development and local capacities so that men, women, and children together can construct a more humane and full life centered around the values of equality and justice.” Andar has focused most of its work in rural areas of Honduras, striving to empower rural people living in poverty, and especially rural women, to take a more active role in the political, social, economic, and cultural life of their communities. All of Andar’s work strives to move toward gender equality, acting to improve the conditions of women and children in a society that has been deeply wounded by gender inequality and its related violence.
