The Haiti Adolescent Girls Network (HAGN), established in the wake of the 2010 earthquake, is a local organization that fosters collective local and international partnership for the empowerment, safety, health, and well-being of girls and youth (10-24 years of age) in Haiti through the creation of safe spaces where girls can regularly meet to build their social, economic, cognitive, and health-related assets.
The Network seeks to craft a sustainable partnership with and among these organizations, laying the foundation for long-term capacity building in Haiti. The network is designed for collaborative learning and draws on the expertise of its members to create girl-centered programming rooted in local contexts.
The Haiti Adolescent Girls Network has as its goal, mission, and vision the following:
- Goal: Out of the earthquake and cholera emergencies as experienced by girls, to foster a well-resourced public-private network of places where girls can regularly meet to build their health-related, social, economic, and cognitive assets.
- Mission: The Haiti Adolescent Girls Network is dedicated to the empowerment, safety, health, and well-being of girls in Haiti.
- Vision: The Haiti Adolescent Girls Network envisions a world where adolescent girls are free of violence, discrimination and ill health, a world where girls feel supported, heard and safe, and have the opportunity to reach their full potential.
