Raising Changemakers, Transforming Communities
From safe, creative spaces to bold community leadership, we nurture children to rise and lead lasting change.
Our work is led by people from within the community, many of whom once grew up in our projects themselves.
They know the struggles children face at the margins of society, and they are proof that with safety, creativity, and care, children can rise to become leaders of change.
Together with Child Rights Monitoring Committees, Parents’ Collectives, and local schools, they are building a movement where children’s voices are heard, their rights are protected, and entire communities become spaces that nurture leadership and radical transformation.
Poverty tells children they have no future.
Creativity tells them they have infinite potential.

Teachers as Partners
Local teachers discovering the power of creative learning, and children becoming leaders in the classroom and beyond.
“Children from our hubs are excelling academically, leading in sports, and even providing photography for local schools and government.”
