Inclusive Development .

At Chemonics, we believe that successful development programs are those that are led by and strengthen the resilience of the communities we serve — especially those hardest to reach and traditionally underrepresented in power and decision-making. Our network of specialists draws from industry expertise to integrate inclusive development at the heart of our work. Our teams consider identity factors — like sex, age, ability, geographic location, ethnic and religious identity, indigeneity, and economic status — to inform analysis; program design; implementation; and monitoring, evaluation, and learning. We integrate safeguarding measures to protect people from unintended harm, such as preventing and responding to sexual harassment, exploitation, and abuse; violence against women and girls; trafficking in persons; child abuse; and other forms of abuse. These tailored approaches ensure that we program for equity to deepen equitable development impact across all countries and sectors where Chemonics works.
