ActionAid advocates for change to international, national and local government policies to address the causes of inequality of opportunity between men and women. 

We campaign for changes that promote women's involvement in practical decision-making. We work with national governments and community organisations so that change can be appropriate and long-lasting.

ActionAid Asia's campaign against trafficking aims to challenge the gross abuse of human rights of women, girls and boys who are forced and deceived to move within and across borders and end up in:

• forced labour
• sexual exploitation
• forced adoption
• bondage
