| Zusammenfassung: | Religious involvement in humanitarian aid and development takes countless forms, varying by country, traditions, and sector.

Family planning, a USAID priority, exemplifies sensitivities but also positive examples and potential. Experience of religious engagement on women’s empowerment including specific issues like gender-based violence (GBV) and child marriage, can be complex, but their importance warrants particular attention. Child protection poses similar issues. |
