Our Work

Delivering education and removing barriers

Our projects all link to education but their scope and reach varies greatly. We deliver life skills, financial management, specialist vocational training, access to birth certificates, sustainable farming methods and so much more.

Birth Registration

A child without a birth certificate is prevented from fulfilling almost a third of the 30 guarantees set out in the U.N.’s Universal Declaration of Human Rights. For over a decade, we have been working with Trinity Project, tackling Zimbabwe’s birth registration crisis.

Young Women's Empowerment

Too often deep rooted gender disparities leave young women uneducated and vulnerable. Working with Rafiki Girls Centre we provide 9-15 month life skills, vocational courses, work experience and psycho-social support to build confidence and employability.

Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights

Young people who do not understand their bodies, STIs and romantic relationships have a hard time staying healthy. We work with Trinity Project to empower girls and boys to claim their rights and avoid both illness and sexual exploitation.

Health, Nutrition & Climate Change

Less than one in ten children receives the globally defined minimum acceptable diet for their age. Agricultural education is needed to realise improved nutritious crop yields. Working with Foundations for Farming, we teach primary schools and communities modern methods of climate smart agriculture.

Whether delivering education directly or looking to remove the barriers to education, some of our work is in schools but much of it is not.

Support can come in many forms. Here are a few examples of things we do:

Help primary schools earn an income with which they can buy books, bricks, computers and more

Empower young people to earn the money it takes to reduce their vulnerability to exploitation including transactional sex

Train on using computers, to develop IT literacy and broad based work skills

Help primary schools feed their students, reducing time missed with illness and improving concentration in class

Educate girls and boys on the protections of the law and how to avoid child marriage

Establish Community Action Plans ensuring birth registration issues are locally owned and (with our support) delivered against

Train young women aged 18-25 with life skills and vocational skills to get them into work

Provide legal advice to assist vulnerable children and orphans to claim their inheritance and access welfare

Provide HIV & AIDS testing with follow up counselling and other services

Help vulnerable children access birth certificates, a legal requirement for graduating secondary school

Help communities farm sustainably tackling malnutrition and building climate change resilience

Make referrals for wide ranging health, welfare and psychological services

Educate about sexual and reproductive health and rights to keep young people healthy and avoid early parenthood

Empower communities to advocate for themselves, driving up service delivery standards in birth registration, health provision and more

Demystify sexual health issues and open the dialogue between children and parents
