What we do
Empowering Refugees Through Skills, Sustainability, and Advocacy
Our organization is committed to transforming the lives of refugees by equipping them with essential skills, resources, and advocacy efforts that foster self-reliance, dignity, and resilience. Through our comprehensive programs, we address critical challenges faced by refugee communities, ensuring they have the tools to build a brighter future.
Livelihood Skills Training & Employment of Refugees
We empower refugees with practical skills that pave the way for economic independence. Our training programs focus on shoemaking, financial literacy, and sustainable farming practices, providing individuals with the expertise needed to generate income and support their families. Beyond training, we offer direct employment opportunities in shoemaking and design, enabling refugees to earn a stable income while contributing to their community’s economic growth.
Essential Footwear Provision
Many refugee children face significant barriers to education, including the lack of basic necessities such as shoes. We provide essential footwear to vulnerable children, ensuring they can attend school comfortably and with dignity. Our initiative not only enhances their physical well-being but also boosts their confidence and sense of belonging within their learning environment.
Environmental Sustainability
In our commitment to environmental protection, we incorporate sustainability into our programs by recycling old shoes into artistic and eco-friendly footwear. This initiative reduces waste in refugee settlements while creating innovative and practical solutions to footwear scarcity.
Psychosocial Support
Recognizing the trauma and hardships that refugees endure, we integrate psychosocial support into our programs. Through creative activities, group therapy, and mentorship, we help refugees—especially children and youth—cope with stress, build resilience, and regain hope for the future. Our approach fosters mental well-being, ensuring they have the emotional strength to navigate their journey.
Advocacy for Refugee Rights
Beyond direct support, we advocate for refugee rights, raising awareness about their challenges and amplifying their voices. We engage with policymakers, humanitarian organizations, and the broader community to promote policies that protect and support refugees. Through advocacy, we strive to create an inclusive society where refugees can access opportunities, education, and livelihoods without discrimination.
Building a Future of Hope and Dignity
Through these thematic areas, we are not just providing shoes—we are stepping up for refugee communities, creating pathways for self-sufficiency, sustainability, and social justice. Every step we take is a step towards empowerment, resilience, and a better tomorrow for refugees.
