Naki Ouest Village, Togo

Batemone villagers are grateful for the Transformational Community Development (TCD) lessons they have been receiving. A few local women met with the TCD worker and shared how these lessons have positively impacted their farming practices this season. Sayi, our TCD worker, also reported that Batemone now has a new chief after the passing of the former chief.

Thank you!

Northern Thailand TCD Expansion

Sindh Province, Pakistan

Our village outreach programme is helping the community to raise the resources from their own villages. Presently, we are reaching 21 different villages to uplift the community. Our recent programmes are making a difference. FAITH (Food Always In The Home) gardens are helping the community to deal with food needs. FAITH gardens and self-help groups are providing more opportunities to share and make strong relations. 

Ramantar Village, Nepal

Ramantar Village is still locked down. Public gatherings and programmes in the community are not allowed because of COVID-19. We are happy to be safe, teach, and support people. I met with them personally and continued to teach the safety measures for COVID-19. The villagers are very much aware of using masks, sanitiser, and keeping distances with other people. It has helped to minimise the risk to their family and the community. 

Katuwaghat Village, Nepal

Many people of Katuwaghat Village had the chance to gain knowledge and skills from the Transformational Community Development (TCD) lessons. The TCD movement has prompted their behaviour to change. They can now go and talk to the government about their problems and can ask for a budget for the community’s development. When the leaders of the political party come to their village, they can present their problems to them.

We have made a small progress this month regarding the Microenterprise Programme in the community. Despite the uncertainties and challenges to hold training now in the country due to the current political conflict and widespread infections of the Delta variant, our first-time Vision Seminar on microbusiness had been done this month.

Kiwanjani Village, Kenya

Kiwanjani is a vast area, with the majority of people living in poverty and not able to provide for their basic needs. It’s difficult for them to come up with even one meal each day. GHNI has introduced Transformational Community Development (TCD) as a system of mentoring and training them on a way to improve their living standards using available resources.

Gem Village, Kenya

Gem Village is a happy community after water was drilled through the networking between GHNI and other organisations. Water is essential for human life, and it plays a crucial role in the day to day life of a human being. After a well was drilled in Gem, it has provided enough water for villagers to drink, and also to cultivate their land which had remained uncultivated for many years.
