POINT is deeply committed to diversity and gender equality, ensuring that all individuals—regardless of age, race, ethnicity, faith, marital status, gender, or physical and mental ability—are treated with dignity, respect, and fairness. Recognizing that inequality and discrimination persist in society, POINT actively works to create an inclusive environment where diverse perspectives are valued and everyone has equal opportunities to participate and thrive.
POINT embeds equity into all levels of its operations, from recruitment and leadership development to program implementation and beneficiary engagement. The organization ensures that hiring, promotions, and training opportunities are based solely on merit and ability, while proactively addressing structural barriers that hinder the participation of marginalized groups, particularly women, persons with disabilities, and other vulnerable populations. Employees and volunteers undergo mandatory training on gender equality and diversity, fostering a workplace culture that is free from discrimination, harassment, and bias. Violations of these principles are taken seriously and addressed through a structured disciplinary process.
In its humanitarian and development programs, POINT mainstreams gender equality by ensuring women, youth, and marginalized groups have meaningful participation in decision-making, leadership roles, and access to essential services. The organization integrates gender-sensitive approaches into project design, implementation, and evaluation, ensuring that interventions address the unique needs and challenges of different demographic groups. Additionally, POINT works to dismantle discriminatory norms by promoting gender awareness and advocating for policies that empower women and foster social inclusion.
