The Trust supports around 10,000 welfare pensioners in Nepal. Most are in their 80s and are totally reliant on the Trust for a dignified comfortable old age. The Trust has a coordinating role for helping those in need in the UK and other service charities.

Habitat for Humanity
United KingdomResearch/Dev
Our goal is to eliminate poverty housing and homelessness from the world, and to make decent shelter a matter of conscience and action. We invite people of all backgrounds, races and religions to build houses together in partnership with families in need. We have built over 300,000 houses around the world and we are currently serving a low-income family somewhere around the world through new house construction, major house rehabilitation projects and with house repairs. Thanks to Habitat for Humanity over one and a half million people now have safe, decent, affordable shelter. HFH believes that decent housing is a fundamental human right and that inadequate housing impacts on the capacity to work (including education), on health (especially of mothers and children) and on gender equality (HFH works mostly with women). We believe that it is our moral and religious duty to ensure that we are part of a world where no one has to live in poverty; where everyone has access to food, shelter and clean water; to a livelihood, health and education. HFH also believes that work on shelter and housing ties the other basic human rights issues together effectively as a significant and necessary crosscutting intervention.

HakiElimu
TanzaniaChildren/Education
HakiElimu works to realize equity and justice in basic education and society by promoting the democratization of governance at all levels of society. Our approach focuses on creating space for concerned citizens to make a difference in education and democracy. Throughout, we seek to bridge persistent gaps between policy and practice by making current policies work for the people, and we also ensure that the Government serves the public and provides practical justice to all concerned. We aim to enable the ordinary citizens to get involved in order to make a difference in the education sector. We believed that education would improve when ordinary citizens became involved in effecting that change creating meaningful public participation in education governance. Therefore, we could say that HakiElimu is an experiment to see whether schools can be governed in an inclusive, open and democratic fashion; and whether the poor can access the relevant information and influence policy and practice.
