WereldOuders focuses on the empowerment and personal development of vulnerable children and families in Latin America and the Caribbean. With us, they receive attention and the support that suits them. WereldOuders has a unique approach, based on four pillars: a safe home, health, education and independence. By providing a social safety net while building the children's self-confidence, they regain a future perspective, an opportunity to realize their dreams. WereldOuders has projects in nine countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. These are Bolivia, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua and Peru. A home is the most important safe base for a child. When a home situation is scarred by poverty, addiction, violence or the death of one of the parents, the secure base falls away. WereldOuders and partner organization NPH are committed to creating or restoring a safe home base for children and youth in Latin America. Our vision of "a safe home" has changed significantly over the past years. NPH was founded in Mexico in 1954 with the opening of a children's home for children who had nowhere else to go. The organization continued to expand to include children's homes in the other eight countries. More than 19,000 children found shelter in an NPH home. These homes were called "family homes" by the organization. NPH placed great importance on creating a warm, loving family atmosphere in the homes. No matter how well this worked out, a family home can never replace a real family. With today's knowledge, arising from empirical evidence and in accordance with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, we recognize the unintended harmful effect that institutionalization has on children and youth. Children and youth become alienated from their families and communities of origin. Stigmas attached to growing up in a children's home lead to (young) adults struggling to find their place in society. Having no family to fall back on makes it difficult to hold your own in society as an "uprooted" adult. 'Our' children can always come to NPH even later in life, but that is an exception in the world of children's homes. Uprootedness in general is a major problem: this group has difficulty raising their own children and keeping them from ending up in crime or on the streets. International child welfare organizations are therefore increasingly focusing on de-institutionalization. NPH, too, is going through this transition. We can and want to do more to really change the situation of families and children. We have to change course. We have therefore started to focus more and more on supporting vulnerable families and communities to prevent families from falling apart. This is not entirely new: since its founding, NPH has supported more than 80,000 children who did not live in an NPH family home.

Ensena por Bolivia's vision is that all Bolivians, regardless of their origin, can imagine and creatively build a society where they can develop themselves. The organization works with partner schools and communities to provide training and support to teachers and to implement innovative teaching and learning strategies that promote student engagement and success. Ensena por Bolivia's approach is based on the idea that leadership and educational equity are closely connected and that by developing strong, committed leaders in the educational system, it is possible to create lasting change and improve the lives of children and communities in Bolivia. The organization's work is aligned with Bolivia's national education goals, and our mission, vision and approach are based on the reality we observe every day in the communities and classrooms where we work. The short- and long-term impact we seek is focused on: 1. Improving access to quality education. We prioritize working in marginalized communities and with schools that lack resources or face other challenges that limit access to quality education. To achieve this, Ensena por Bolivia recruits and trains participants who are committed to promoting educational equity and social justice and who have the skills and knowledge to implement innovative teaching and learning strategies that promote student engagement and success. 2. Addressing the quality of education. Ensena por Bolivia focuses on improving the quality of education in Bolivia by promoting innovative teaching and learning strategies, encouraging the use of technology in the classroom, and providing professional development and ongoing support to teachers. The organization works with partner schools and communities to identify improvement opportunities and develop strategies to address them. Ensena por Bolivia would eventually advocate for policies and practices promoting quality education and supporting teachers and students. 3. Addressing the education gap between urban and rural areas. Ensena por Bolivia is working to address the education gap between urban and rural areas by establishing partnerships with schools and communities in remote or marginalized regions. ExB recruits and trains teachers willing to work in these areas and deeply understand their communities cultural and social context. We also work with local authorities and stakeholders to identify and address barriers to education in rural areas, such as limited resources, inadequate infrastructure, and cultural biases. 4. Support the movement led by communities and Alumni. We believe that one of the most effective ways to generate social change is through the participation of social actors within the same communities that face inequality in different levels and areas. The objective is to build synergies with the entire educational community: Parents' school boards, educational councils, district education offices, student organizations and indigenous authorities. The aim is to contribute to the common goal of pursuing better education. Each actor in this ecosystem plays a crucial part in developing a more equitable vision of education that allows children and youth in our country to fulfill their potential. This is the base of our approach.
