Maitri Network: effectively combating violence against women in India
16 organisations support women who have suffered violence. They train representatives of the police and judiciary to sensitize them to the needs of traumatized women.
Girls in need of protection live safely
The Solera hostel in Amravati is home to girls from the most difficult family situations who receive loving support for their personal and school development.
Help for young mothers and infants in South Nepal
This project supports the development of structures within local communities to improve maternal and neonatal health.
Dalit and other disadvantaged girls (and boys) successfully go to school, their mothers earn money, teachers are well trained and schools are well equipped.
„Voice of women“ – access to effective legal services
Our aim is for Dalit and Adivasi women who have been victims of violence so that they can defend themselves and take legal action.
Self-defence and self-confidence
Training for girls and young women in and around Nagpur. Girls develop technique and self-confidence and learn to defend themselves against assaults.
Women in eight slums in Nagpur learn professional skills that enable them to earn a fair living. This means that their children can continue to go to school.
Dhardo Rimpoche School for children from impoverished families
Parents are often illiterate and unable to provide the financial or familial support needed for their children’s studies.
