She Leads ME: Increased sustained influence of GYW on gender norms & decision-making in formal & informal institutions The Middle East is a priority region for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs under the &lsquo;Strengthening Civil Society&rsquo; strategy. For Tdh NL, value is added in establishing a track record of supporting projects in a new region and expanding partnerships. Though Tdh NL will not have its own staff based in the country, valuable learning is expected to be made through exchanges and linkages that will be established as part of the wider She Leads programme. She Leads is expected to address all four main themes and all six outcomes in Tdh&rsquo;s ToC through engaging girls, boys, women and men in protecting girls&rsquo; rights.
