AREAS OF INTERVENTION
Remote support
With remote support, we strive to guarantee education for children who have been denied this right. In addition to education, the programme also includes health and food assistance which are fundamental.
Food security
We respond to the primary needs of children, their families, and communities through the distribution of basic food items (along with seeds and tools for agricultural production), promoting organic and sustainable agriculture for food production and self-sustainability.
Health and access to care
We are committed to ensuring the right to healthcare and medical treatments without any discrimination, through the construction of hospital facilities in the most marginalised contexts and the provision of medicines and specialised machinery.
Emergencies
In situations of health, food, and climate emergencies, we support the most vulnerable groups with food assistance and medical care.
Water and hygiene
By building wells, water plants, strengthening sanitation facilities in schools and implementing proper education, we want to expand access to water and its proper use for domestic and agricultural purposes.
Education
For us, the right to education is the foundation of development: we support educational activities and the construction of infrastructures, along with vocational training and projects for women’s entrepreneurship.
