Our Mission

To empower adolescent girls and young women with tools and opportunities to overcome poverty, improve health, advance social justice and lead in climate action.

Our Vision

A world where adolescent girls and young women thrive with dignity equality and the power to lead change 

Our Core Values

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI)

We are committed to advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion across our work. We recognize intersecting identities and actively address barriers related to gender, age, disability, socio-economic status, and other forms of marginalization,creating inclusive spaces where all can participate meaningfully.

Accountability & Integrity

We are accountable to the communities we serve, our partners, and our funders. We uphold transparency, ethical practice, and responsible stewardship of resources, while fostering feedback, learning, and continuous improvement.

Feminist Leadership

We believe leadership is defined by the ability to challenge unequal power structures and advance collective well-being. VISTA promotes feminist leadership grounded in collaboration, care, accountability, and social transformation.

Learning & Adaptation

We value continuous learning informed by evidence, feedback, and lived experience. We adapt our approaches to changing contexts to strengthen effectiveness, responsiveness, and impact.

Solidarity
