Centre for Catalyzing Change (formerly The Centre for Development and Population Activities)

The Centre for Catalyzing Change is an internationally recognised non-profit organisation that improves the lives of women and girls in developing countries. Centre for Catalyzing Change is formerly known as the Centre for Development and Population Activities (CEDPA).

In the last 30 years, C3 has emerged as a key change-making organization focused on improving the condition of girls and women in the country. At C3, we design solutions that mobilize, equip, educate and empower girls and women to meet their full potential. We strive to create an ecosystem where all girls and women can demand and get their due entitlements. Our work addresses the challenges that they face in our country at various stages in their lives. At the core of our work and approach is the belief that gender equality is essential for development and democracy. Our programs are aimed at equipping girls and women with practical life skills, improved confidence in personal decision-making, and increased self-esteem. Our work ensures that girls and women have access to quality reproductive and maternal healthcare. We are committed to equal participation of women in governance and leadership roles as a step towards building a stronger nation.
