On 15 Oct, we launched a community campaign to raise awareness of the dangers of child recruitment, drug abuse, and breaking off education. We’re grateful for the support of Partners Yemen and Partners Global for this project.

UPDATE: We made a new video to raise awareness of the litter problem on our sea front. Single-use plastic bags are still being used, but hopefully we can work on that next.

September 2021

A fantastic new environmental project has been launched in Mahra to discourage littering, promote recycling and prevent disease. An influx of Yemenis displaced by war makes this especially important. Thank you to its funders Partners Yemen, part of Partners Global. Find out more by watching two short videos (in Arabic).

    School Graduation

    July 2021

    In 2013, this class in a rural desert area of Mahra had no formal teacher, no books, no pens, but a lot of enthusiasm. We found them a teacher for two years and then the Education Ministry took on the contract. Last month, they officially graduated secondary school!
    In all, eight boys passed, after travelling all the way to the coastal capital to sit their final test. Congratulations!!
