Heifer is on a mission to end hunger and poverty in a sustainable way by investing in agriculture and supporting small-scale farmers to earn a sustainable living income and better integrate rural women, youth and indigenous populations into more inclusive value chains. To achieve our goals, we operate in the mentioned 19 countries across four continents through locally staffed and led offices. HNL is part of the global Heifer International network and operates as Heifer's gateway to Europe. HNL focusses on building partnerships and raising funds from European donors to support local initiatives, such as this proposed project in Bangladesh. While the local Heifer team in Bangladesh manages project design and implementation, HNL is responsible for mobilizing and securing funding partners and managing donor relationships after a grant has been approved. As such, HNL also oversees coordination with donors' grant preferences. Grants and donations that HNL receives for specific projects such as this one, are transferred one-on-one to the relevant Heifer office in the country of project implementation, in this case Bangladesh. Empowering women is one of the cornerstones in Heifer's approach. Since 1999 HNL has raised funds that supported 109266 female farmers. In FY 2024, HNL has supported 15568 female farmers. Heifer started working in Bangladesh in 2006, and to date have supported more than 139000 families across 6 districts in the northern part of the country.
Empowering marginalised youths and mothers in rural areas with practical skills for self reliance in a bid to improve livelihoods.
Street Child Nederland's social mission is to ensure that every child, especially girls and children from marginalised communities, has access to inclusive, quality education in a safe and supportive environment. We work to break the cycle of poverty and exclusion by addressing the root causes that keep children out of school, including gender inequality, economic hardship, and social marginalisation. Our priority objective is to create sustainable and community-driven solutions that not only improve access to education but also strengthen child protection, family resilience, and local capacity.
We hope to see communities empowered to transform for sustainable self-resilience and better health. By supporting and working with the community, we provide necessities to children and other vulnerable people and opportunities to improve the quality of life.
To shift power, unlock equitable funding, and elevate local leadership to drive sustainable, community-led development.
LEGIBE, is a registered non-profit NGO, founded in May 2022 to empower vulnerable girls and teenage mothers in our community on the shores of Lake Victoria in Mukono District. Our vision is to improve the quality of life for vulnerable girls and teenage mothers in our community through our programs, as listed below: 1. Mental Health: The vulnerability of our community girls gives them stories to tell. Many of them have experienced rape, domestic violence, sexual abuse, family rejection, being orphaned, poverty, and diseases, eg, HIV/AIDS. Through our Mental Health program, we strive to support vulnerable girls and teenage mothers in our community by providing counseling after they share their stories. We regularly conduct counseling sessions, inviting counselors and women activists to speak with the girls, and encourage them to leave their past challenges and focus on their new life and what they want to become in the future. Through this program, their hope is restored, and they feel at home in their new life. 2. Music, Dance, and Drama (MDD): Through Music performances, Let The Girl Be-Uganda, helps to create a platform for girls and young mothers in the community to tell stories, share experiences, and create performances about our community's pressing challenges, like the girl-child education, diseases associated with poor sanitation, family planning, etc. These performances, therefore, act as a mobilizing tool to identify these community issues for awareness campaigns and prevention strategies. 3. Community Outreach Program: This program aims to work in partnership with the community members, especially local leaders and mothers/ guardians of the girls. We reach out to them regularly for sensitization and awareness creation about major issues affecting women and girls in our community. 4. In the Self-Sustenance program, girls learn sewing, knitting, and other skills that will enable them to have an income and become economically independent. The Education Program helps girls attend school. This program is currently paused.

How To Save Millions Of Lives With A Simple MP3 Player The solar-powered device developed by URIDU is used to provide health education to illiterate rural women in developing countries Every six seconds a child under five dies. Almost all of those deaths occur in developing countries - and most of them are entirely preventable. Millions of lives could be saved just by providing illiterate rural mothers with accessible health education. Unfortunately, bringing this knowledge to remote locations has so far been an enormous challenge for both governments and NGOs. A new project is tackling that problem with a groundbreaking solution based on solar-powered MP3 players. The so-called MP3forLife Player has been developed by URIDU (www.uridu.org), a German non-profit social enterprise. Each player contains more than 400 carefully selected answers to questions about health, nutrition, family planning, child care, work safety and many more topics. All texts are translated with the help of more than 10.000 volunteers from over 100 countries who participate in a unique crowdsourcing effort. Once the information has been translated it is recorded by a native speaker of the target language. Local NGOs are taking care of distributing MP3forLife Players free of charge to women in need. We conceived the MP3forLife Player for small group listening - it fosters discussion, exchange and group building", explains Felicitas Heyne, psychologist and founder of URIDU. We want to provide basic knowledge to illiterate rural women, but we also want to create a team spirit among them. They are key to positive change in their countries. Wherever women are empowered, a favorable spiral is set in motion. Health and education improve, populations stabilize, economies grow." The MP3forLife approach has been successfully implemented in Tanzania in co-ordination with the national Ministry for Health and Social Welfare. Further East African countries are following the example. About URIDU: URIDU is a German non-profit social enterprise that empowers rural women in developing countries using solar-powered MP3 players and mobile-friendly web content. The organization's website at www.uridu.org contains additional information.
