Education is a key prerequisite for better prospects. That is why disadvantaged children in India, Bangladesh, Nepal and Romania are supported through the provision and promotion of pre-schools and additional coaching courses. Preschool work in particular plays a central role in this, as it gives children a good start in the state school system, lays important foundations for their further development and thus offers them better prospects for the future. Supplementary learning and support programmes in the afternoons (in addition to regular lessons) also help to address academic gaps, nurture talents and open up better long-term prospects for the children.

Here you will find our current projects on the topics of pre-school and coaching:

Computer courses open up important opportunities for children and young people in terms of their academic and professional futures. In many disadvantaged areas, young people have only limited access to digital media and modern learning opportunities. Through targeted computer courses, they learn how to use the internet safely, acquire basic digital skills, and master key applications for school, training and work (Word, Excel, etc.). At the same time, the courses boost self-confidence and independence, and enable them to participate actively in an increasingly digital world. Digital education programmes create new prospects, particularly for children from socially disadvantaged backgrounds, and contribute to better future opportunities in the long term.

Sewing courses offer women in particular the opportunity to learn and develop new skills and to build up a sustainable income in the long term. In many disadvantaged regions, women have limited access to education and career prospects. Through practical training in sewing and handicrafts, they are given the chance to become more financially independent. At the same time, the courses boost self-confidence, encourage personal responsibility and open up new opportunities for a self-determined future. In this way, the sewing courses make an important contribution to the social and economic empowerment of women.

Our cooperation partner, “Give One Back,” describes the situation on its website as follows: “In the vast majority of cases, street children do not attend school. Begging and child labor shape their daily lives.” Together with our partner in Bangladesh, we support so-called “Schools Under The Sky” in socially disadvantaged areas, enabling street children to attend school for a few hours each day. At the same time, we support the additional projects “Peace Home,” “Transition Shelter,” and “LEEDO Street Children” (LEEDO stands for Local Education and Economic Development Organization). All images are sourced from our cooperation partner’s website.
