GLM supports the environmental and social development of rural communities. The primary aim is to improve community livelihoods in an environmentally sustainable manner. Yet, the organisation also uses a holistic approach, since a combination of interventions is often needed to respond to the immense development needs in the rural areas.
GLM has always used participatory and people-centred working methods. The aim is to provide the local people with skills and knowledge which enable them to influence the development of their own livelihoods and the broader community. Partner communities take part in the entire project cycle from project identification and planning to implementation and evaluation.
