Youth protection and development

Positive Youth Development or PYD refers to the global efforts of other youth, adults, community, government agencies, and schools to achieve opportunities for young people to advance their interests, skills, and abilities into adulthood. Youth development is considered comprehensive, physically, practically and emotionally, that occurs in the period of adolescence, which ranges between the ages of ten to twenty-four years. Simply put, it is a process by which young people acquire the social knowledge, skills, and emotional abilities that they demand throughout life (University of Minnesota Counseling Center for Youth Development). Although the word "youth" can be used synonymously with "child" and "adolescent" or "young person", The phrase "youth development" or "positive youth development" is often used in the scientific literature and by practitioners who work with youth to refer to programs designed to improve these processes. It is distinguished from "youth development" or "adolescent development" in focusing on promoting activity in better human development rather than on the scientific study of age change.

Our strategy in humanitarian work

Human for Human believes that one of its main missions, as a humanitarian agency, is to communicate the urgent needs of vulnerable and affected populations to the international community. Thus, Human for Human closely consults with the local communities it serves to ensure that its programs do not impose solutions from the outside, but rather meet their long-term needs and requirements. This popular approach proves effective in promoting an environment of self-help and sustainability.

Emergency, health and sanitation

Human for Human meets the immediate needs of victims of natural disasters and civil conflict around the world by providing food rations, clean water, non-food items, transitional shelter and emergency medical services. In addition to emergencies, Human for Human's field teams provide health and long-term nutrition-related services to needy communities through operating clinics and training health workers. Human for Human also provides water and sanitation programmers, giving communities access to clean water, reducing the spread of infectious diseases, and improving quality of life.

Agriculture and food security

Human for Human Food and Agriculture programs include environmental awareness by integrating climate change, natural resource management, and conservation principles into projects that improve global food security. By increasing local communities' knowledge of sound farming methods appropriate to the regional landscape, cultural needs, and environmental concerns, Human for Human empowers farmers to diversify viable crops, benefit from the local growing season, and conserve local natural resources. The result is communities that can produce nutritious food for themselves in a sustainable way.

Education is vital to the social and economic integration of future generations. Human for Human puts great emphasis on this sector to ensure that children affected by the conflict can continue their education. The programs include a wide range of activities: teacher training programs, building libraries and Internet centers, providing books and classroom furniture to schools that lack resources, and promoting equal access to education. These programs also empower youth through service learning and leadership training to become active in their communities and act as agents of change.

Livelihoods and food security projects

Finding a new or better job is the most direct way out of poverty for families in need. Human for Human facilitates this process by providing vocational training, providing microfinance opportunities, and developing promising value chains. As a result of these efforts, farmers are able to take their crops to market before they spoil, and women who do not have a resource can earn an income to support their families. These programs aim to achieve reliable long-term growth, and Human for Human often engages private sector partners to take advantage of additional resources and ensure sustainability.

development projects

Shelter and Infrastructure

When natural disasters destroy populations or conflict forces families to flee their homes, Human for Human provides temporary and permanent refuge. Human for Human also contributes to the local infrastructure by building schools, irrigation canals and community centers in poor communities. Relief International supports the training of local residents so that they can participate in the construction process, creating livelihood opportunities for members of the local community. Supplemental programs help make homes safer and more comfortable by promoting products such as high-efficiency cook stoves, which reduce indoor air pollution and reduce the need to collect fuel.

Protection and human rights

Millions of people around the world face discrimination, persecution and even violence. Human for Human is at the forefront of implementing programs to protect and support these individuals and encourage peace through conflict resolution through a culture of nonviolence. The result is programs that provide legal aid, combat human trafficking, strengthen media and journalism, and encourage democratic governance. The rights of women and girls are a very important issue in this sector, and they are included in many of the programs of Human for Human. Human for Human's approach to civil society development emphasizes cross-cultural understanding and empowering vulnerable and underrepresented members of society.
