“The Federation for Associations connected to the International HUMANA PEOPLE TO PEOPLE Movement”, (Humana People to People) is an international membership organization, which currently comprises 32 national associations working in 42 countries. The Humana People to People Movement places itself in the frontline of the struggle for development. The movement is built on the understanding of people as a decisive force in creating development.

There is an unfulfilled need for teachers for the rural areas in most developing countries.Over the past 15 years Humana People to People member associations have trained highly qualified and dedicated primary school teachers to take up positions in the countryside.In partnership with the Governments of Angola, Malawi and Mozambique, 23 colleges have been established, graduating more than 2,200 teachers annually.So far, 6,500 teachers have completed the training and received a certificate issued by the respective Ministries of Education qualifying them to serve in Government Primary Schools.The two and a half year education represents a life changing program of training and experiences. From 2009 the education will be one year in Mozambique.The education includes practice periods in primary schools, where the would-be teacher learns the skills of teaching and becomes equipped to meet the challenges of being a teacher in a rural setting. At the One World University in Mozambique, instructors for the teacher training colleges earn their bachelor degrees. “Fighting with the Poor” is the second department at the same university.
Training of Teachers
“We want to see loving and caring, responsible, creative and engaged grown ups as the basic element of the feeling of security for the life of every child.”(The Humana People to People Charter)
“When water dies from the burning bacteria, we drill even deeper, we clean better, we organize health groups.” (The Humana People to People Charter)
Food Security & Fighting with the Poor
Farmers Club
The Farmers Club program organizes and builds capacity in small-scale farmers to improve their living conditions by increasing productivity, crop quality and linking farmers to viable markets. The program introduces improved agricultural techniques and provides a forum to develop the skills and experience of participating farmers.The program puts focus on improved soil management and introduction of organic farming methods alongside better water access and protection of the environment.Farmers Club Projects are operated in Angola China, Malawi, Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Guinea Bissau benefiting a total of 47.800 farmers and 230.000 family members.
Child Aid / Community DevelopmentThe Child Aid program builds the capacity of 3,000 families and their communities to work towards the common goal of improving their children’s lives. The project is all-inclusive, and recognizes that in order to nurture children successfully, the entire community must be strengthened. Families are brought together to address a range of community development issues, including health, income, education, municipal development, environmental awareness, and greater opportunity for children.52 Child Aid projects are operated in 15 countries, benefiting more than 290.000 families.
Educating the Young and the Children
Primary and Secondary Schools Humana People to People’s schools for children started as a part of the Child Aid programs in 1990, targeting the street children from some of the large cities. In both Angola and Mozambique the wars had resulted in many children being displaced in their own country.The idea was to create quality primary school opportunities for street children who had dropped out of school.Today, members of the Federation operate 14 Schools for 9,000 children including street kids and otherwise vulnerable children.
Vocational SchoolsThe Vocational Schools offer young people training in a number of demanding theoretical and practical subjects, comprising a secondary education as well as basic vocational training. This provides the students with a solid foundation to pursue further studies and to start a professional life. Agriculture, Carpentry, Mechanics, Construction and Business management are some of the many vocational subjects introduced. Today, members of the Federation operate 11 Vocational Schools providing education to more than 1,500 youth on a yearly basis.
Children’s TownsThe Children’s Towns Projects provide education and vocational skills to orphans and former street children.During the course of the program, participants transform themselves from being shy, abused, and often traumatized individuals, into bright and skilled human beings, full of potential. 3 Children’s Towns are operated in Mozambique, Zambia and Zimbabwe benefiting 1,225 children on an annual basis. The projects also reach out to more than 10,000 vulnerable children from surrounding communities.
“Look right into the face of AIDS and you will realize, that only the concerted effort from all spheres of society with the Solidary Humanism as a vital platform can hope to help, support, prolong, assist, encourage all involved parties.” (The Humana People to People Charter)
Fighting to Control HIV & AIDS
HOPE Humana People to People The HOPE projects support people with HIV. From the Hope Centers the projects conduct many and varied activities like VCT, positive living clubs, lessons in home based care, nutrition, and much more – all needed in the fight against AIDS and in dealing with the consequences of the AIDS epidemic.
Total Control of the Epidemic (TCE)Total Control of the Epidemic (TCE) operates within geographical areas of 100,000 people over a three year period to provide individual counseling and mobilization of people in the area. Through the program individuals are equipped with the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to take control of HIV/AIDS. Operationally, the TCE model involves recruiting, training and deploying 50 local Field Officers in each area of 100,000 people. The Field Officer walks through his/her field of 2,000 people to visit households, schools and businesses. The Field Officer facilitates an open dialogue about HIV and promotes decisions on safe sexual behavior, mobilizes people to become volunteers (Passionates), and assists in establishing small scale enterprises. In a number of countries, Field Officers are trained and certified by the Ministries of Health to conduct field testing and provide post test counseling. Through the engagement of every single person, cooperation with existing infrastructures, and the community at large, TCE forges crucial links with government interventions at national and local level.Since its inception, TCE has proven effective throughout Sub-Saharan Africa, as well as in areas of India and China reaching over 8 million beneficiaries. TCE is funded by a range of different agencies such as National AIDS Councils, The Global Fund, The World Bank, CDC, USAID/PEPFAR, USDA, Johnson & Johnson and other national and international entities.
Protecting the environment with collection, processing and sale of Second Hand Clothes
Development Instructors
During the last 30 years members of Humana People to People in Europe, the United States and Canada have built a large scale income generating system: collection and sale of second hand clothing. Through 26,000 collection boxes placed in cities and towns across the countries, millions of people have the opportunity to contribute to development by donating their used clothes and shoes.Through this business model Humana People to People turns zero value into considerable value. Reusing the clothes instead of discarding of them in land fills protects the environment, and when the donated clothes are sold the surplus is used in support of development programs world wide. Part of the collected clothing is sold on the commercial markets. Another part is shipped by sea to Africa, where Humana People to People associations sort and sell the clothes at affordable prices. In this way income is generated locally for the many social programs while also creating a large number of jobs and stimulating economic growth in the receiving countries.
The Development Instructor program constitutes a vital part of the Humana People to People Movement. Seeing development as a global effort, Humana People to People invites people to contribute in person through volunteer work at one of many projects in Africa, Asia or Latin America.Trained for 6 months before starting their work at the projects, thousands of Europeans, Americans, Asians and Africans have over the years contributed their impressive share and upon return to their home country they have contributed significantly to build positive attitudes in the public towards the challenges of development.
Frontline InstituteFrontline Institute in Zimbabwe builds capacity in future project leaders to work in the Humana People to People Movement. The students are from Africa, Latin America and Asia.
Partnership in Development
Partnership in Development constitutes an important element in financing Humana People to People’s activities.
“The cause of development accepts the smallest contribution. The dangers of development and the risks involved on the road ahead give credit to the courageous and accept the mishaps as an integral part. We have learnt that nobody is so good that they can exclude someone else.” (The Humana People to People Charter)
