Sindh Province, Pakistan

During this warm and hot summer season, we are visiting different villages and villagers are preparing the crop beds for FAITH gardens. Soon we will distribute the FAITH garden kits to 100 families in different villages. Through this project, we are encouraging the communities to help other families by providing food they can share.

Most Transformational Community Development (TCD) activities occurred in Apir, as our TCD worker Moses explained that security reports discouraged travelling between communities.

The Tailoring Centre in Apir welcomed Mr Sam, who taught the students how to make throw pillowcases. The participants were enthusiastic and acknowledged that the training session was value adding.

MH Village*, Myanmar

The community initiatives towards a redevelopment programme after a few years of political instability in the area is impressive. The community has developed a sense to help themselves even in difficult situations. The idea of the community development plan would create Income Generation for families through agriculture. The active initiative of the community and strong leadership has encouraged GHNI to contribute some capital to run the programme.

Kiwanjani Village, Kenya

Kiwanjani Village is a vast area made of multiple ethnic groups. The area is facing a lot of challenges with drug abuse. Mothers are often the pillar of every family, and so Transformational Community Development (TCD) has made a conscious effort to reach women who are indulging in preparing and selling alcohol to the Kiwanjani villagers.

Kibera Slum, Kenya

Kibera is a slum located in the midst of Nairobi city. It is the largest slum in east Africa with over 3,000,000 people from every corner of Kenya. A majority are living on less than $1 a day. It is from this understanding that we started Transformational Community Development (TCD) among the slum community. For the last few months, we have experienced a lot of success stories of individuals who have directly benefited from TCD, and Baba Abdi is one of them.
