Transitioned Projects

Central to all of our programmes is a commitment to adapt and alter what we provide as the needs of the children evolve. Part of this is reflected in our principle of investing in the local communities until a time where they are able to own and implement the projects for themselves. Here are some of the projects which have transitioned into independence, or where need is gradually abating.  

Romania - Supporting Teenagers Leaving State Care

Picture
A project helping institutionalised teenagers who were leaving state care to develop the skills and confidence they need to live independently. Fundatia COTE is now an independent project. Find out more about our involvement here. 

Moldova - Child and Community Centre

Picture
To tackle the problem of children living in poverty without adequate care,  at risk of abuse, institutionalisation, trafficking and exploitation we developed our Child Friendly Space model in rural Moldova where the dangers were most evident. 

Refugee Boarding Houses - Thailand

Picture
We supported these boarding houses run by the Karen Women's Organisation both with fundraising and by advising them in setting up good standards of care. It is now running independently and continues to seek ongoing funding. 

Malaysia - Apartment Schools

Picture
In Malaysia we supported CSO apartment schools for refugee children Burma who are excluded from the education system. We helped them to build local links and now the programme is getting the majority of their support from local funding. 

Migrant Schools - Thailand

Picture
From 2006 - 2010 we supported a number of migrant schools along the Thai Burma border, providing refugee children with the education they  needed. The Migrant Schools are now supported by Spinning Top, our sister organisation based in New Zealand.

Burma - Chin State Education

Picture
The conflict throughout Burma results in patchy and sometimes non existent education provision for children. We supported our local partner to provide this education within Chin State.The project is now run independently . 

Indonesia - Child and Community Centre

Picture
After the Tsunami we set up a Child and Community Centre in Aceh to start to rebuild a sense of normalcy for the children of the community. We supported them to find local recognition and support and the project is now running independently. 

Romania - Helping children with special needs

Picture
Combatting negative social attitudes towards children with disabilities, we supported an early-years special needs centre in a suburb of Iasi, rural north-east Romania. Sansa Mea has worked miracles in turning around the lives of children with severe disabilities.

India - School Scholarships

Picture
In India we supported 150 migrant children from Burma to access education through a school scholarship programme.  Without such support these children would not be able to attend school at all.
​

Thailand -  Children's Crisis Centre 

Picture
In Thailand we provided over 70 unaccompanied refugee children from Burma with a safe place to stay, trauma care, personal development and education, until a time when they were re-united with family. 

East Timor - Child and Community Centre

Picture
Having built up considerable experience in Europe of working with post-conflict children we were invited by UNICEF to implement a Child Friendly Space in Viqueque, East Timor, after the war of independence left the community devastated.

Haiti - Sport in the slums

Picture
Working with Patrice Millet, a brave man who has dedicated his life to the children of his country, we supported a project that exists to support children living in the slums of Port au Prince by providing mentoring and education through sport. 

Burma - Nursery Schools for displaced children

Picture
On the border of Burma and Thailand the Ei Htu Hta Refugee camp held over 4,500 displaced people fleeing from government oppression. Here we helped to establish four nursery schools for 300 children from the most vulnerable families.
