Three areas of intervention
Fundamental to the lives of children and young people, we see three core areas: Udeducation, protection and health
As the first basic premise for a better world for all children and young people, all children must have access to quality education. This means that children can access free education, well-trained teachers, and school materials. Through this, they build personality, talents, and abilities, which will be decisive for breaking out of poverty, participating in decision-making processes, and demanding their rights.
In all spheres of children's lives, we must protect them from violence, exploitation, and abuse. If we are not successful in this, it will affect children's development, well-being, and future. Without a safe and loving environment, children cannot develop optimally, accept learning, or fight for their rights without fear of the consequences.
In the same way, health is fundamental for children to thrive, develop, overcome obstacles in everyday life, and utilize their full potential. When children have children, cannot go to school because of menstruation, cannot receive essential health services related to a disability, or are otherwise deprived of the opportunity for physical, mental, and social well-being, it affects all other aspects of a child's life - not only here and now, but for the rest of the child's life.
Our method
To achieve tangible change in the three areas of education, protection and health, we use innovative and proven methods. We empower children and young people through capacity building, build their self-esteem and confidence through training, creative expression and mentoring, and give them the tools they need to have a seat at the table where decisions are made. We offer them the tools and support them to educate their families, communities and government about issues that affect them and their rights through advocacy. And most importantly, we work towards sustainability across these methods so that the improvements we make today with children and young people are not gone tomorrow or dependent on financial support to continue.
