1. ABOUT I-ACT PROJECT

The Initiative for Advancing Community Transformation (“I-ACT”) project is a five-year project implemented by The Asia Foundation (“the Foundation”) with funding from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). I-ACT aims to promote positive changes in public attitudes towards human rights and the rule of law by pioneering and mainstreaming Social and Behavior Change (SBC) as an approach to promote human rights. To achieve scale and sustain impact, the Project will support human rights coalitions, organizations, and communication workers in learning, adopting, and applying SBC in their advocacy strategies and approaches.
