We are passionate about making a difference and ensuring no child is left behind. Knowing that there are various ways we can drive changes for children in our community, we decided to focus on three key areas: Child Protection, Child Survival, and Child Education. OUR KEY FOCUS AREAS 1. Child Protection The Elite Star Foundation is working towards creating a safe and happy childhood for every Nigerian child, free from abuse and neglect. We aim to play a significant role in giving children all over Nigeria a voice while upholding the highest standard of child protection through advocacy, awareness, and responsive support service. We are here to defend the children whose rights are violated. We protect the most vulnerable children and make the rights of the child accessible. We are committed to preventing, identifying, and responding to any abuse and neglect of children in our society. Our approach is designed to keep children safe from harm, including physical, emotional, and sexual abuse, neglect, exploitation, and other forms of damage. We take all allegations of abuse and neglect very seriously and will respond to any reports promptly and thoroughly. We have a zero-tolerance policy for abuse and neglect. We are also committed to providing safe, supportive environments for children. This includes providing the children and communities with training on the signs of abuse and neglect and ensuring our programs are conducted safely and respectfully. We recognize that everyone in society is key to creating a safe and supportive environment for our children. We are committed to providing ongoing training and support to adults and children. We will do our utmost to ensure that everyone is familiar with our Child Protection Approach and is committed to promoting the safety and well-being of children. We are dedicated to the safety and well-being of all the children in our society, and we are doing our best to ensure that we mitigate the advent of child abuse in society. 2. Child Survival Child survival is a critical issue that requires the attention of all stakeholders in the global community. For too long, children have been dying from preventable diseases and injuries, and the impact of this loss is felt by their families and entire communities and countries. The United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 3 calls for "ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being for all ages, "focusing on child survival. We recognize that child survival is not an isolated issue but is closely linked to other key development objectives like education, gender equality, and poverty reduction. We must work together to create an enabling environment that provides the necessary support and resources to ensure the survival and well-being of all children. At Elite Star Foundation, every child deserves a chance to live a long, healthy life. That is why we are committed to using a comprehensive approach to promoting the survival and well-being of children worldwide. Our Child Survival Approach combines prevention, early intervention, and response strategies to ensure that children have the best chance of surviving and thriving. Prevention: Prevention is the best way to ensure a child's survival. We work to improve the health and well-being of children by providing health education and preventive health services. Our prevention strategies also focus on reducing poverty, increasing access to quality education, and promoting good nutrition and hygiene. Early Intervention: Early intervention is key to ensuring a child's survival. We provide rapid response services to children at risk of malnutrition, disease, or other health problems. Our early intervention services include providing nutritional supplements and access to medical care. Response: We are there to respond when a child is in crisis. We provide emergency services to children who are victims of natural disasters, conflicts, or other health crises. We provide medical care, food, clean water, shelter, and other essential services to needy children. At Elite Star Foundation, we are committed to protecting and promoting the health and well-being of children around the world. We use a comprehensive approach to ensure that every child has the best chance at survival. 3. Child Education At Elite Star Foundation, we believe that a child's education is the foundation of their future success. We strive to provide a comprehensive approach to education tailored to each child's needs. Through our programs, we strive to create a safe and supportive learning environment that helps children reach their highest potential. Our approach to child education is based on a holistic view of the child as a whole person. We recognize the importance of providing various learning experiences for children, including academic, physical, social, and emotional learning. Education should not be limited to the classroom but should extend to the community and beyond. We strive to create learning opportunities that cultivate creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration. At Elite Star Foundation, we understand that each child has unique abilities and interests. We strive to provide an individualized approach to education that considers each child's needs. We offer a variety of educational programs, such as tutoring, mentorships, and after-school activities, that help children develop the skills they need to succeed. We also recognize the importance of family involvement in a child's education. We strive to create a partnership between families, schools, and other community organizations to ensure that every child has the support they need to reach their educational goals. At Elite Star Foundation, we are committed to providing children with the educational opportunities they need to become successful, productive members of society. We believe that quality education is the key to a brighter future.

UMUDU CANLANDIRMA DERNEGI - Hope Revival Organization (HRO) is a humanitarian, advocacy, and non-profit organization dedicated to working with communities afflicted by conflict and crisis in order to overcome experiencing difficulty coping. HRO is a service-focused organization with a variety of objectives and the intent of promoting development as well as service projects that address everyday needs. As such, HRO's main mission is to promote psychosocial wellbeing through the provision of mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) services, capacity building and awareness raising of the target communities themselves. Our target group, as mandated in our mission, is "populations or people affected by crisis". Displaced people often face threats to their safety and dignity, including violence, coercion, exploitation and deprivation, as well as restrictions on their access to services, assistance, livelihoods and other basic rights. For HRO, populations and people affected by displacement include: IDPs, refugees, returnees, people at risk of displacement and people who are unable to flee (whether they are being obstructed or because they lack the means or ability to do so). Given the important role that host communities have in supporting displaced people and in contributing to durable solutions, we also include members of host communities in our programmes. This aligns with our conflict-sensitive approach and our efforts to understand and mitigate the potential negative effects of our interventions and programmes on communities, markets and the environment. HRO primarily works in situations of armed conflict, providing assistance, protection and concrete solutions. In order to enhance integration among refugees and host community members, HRO also targets those host communities to ensure a peaceful coexistence and that needs of both are met and addressed. Wherever we are present, we try to avail our long experience in war settings that are affected by protracted crisis and prioritize targeting the most vulnerable groups especially those with limited mobility or living in remote areas or even those affected by natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, etc. Therefore, HRO aims to enhance their access to evidence-based, high quality, and culturally sensitive MHPSS services and to build sustainable local capacities and provide comprehensive, integrated, and community-based services that promote their resilience and overall wellbeing. HRO focuses on community care by creating safe environments that foster the effective participation of women, youth, and people with disabilities in economic, social and civil activities in order to limit marginalization, mitigate violence, empower them, and raise their awareness about their rights, which in turn helps in eliminating poverty and improving the quality of life and community resilience. HRO provides its services to all community categories (women, men, girls, and boys) regardless of their religion, race, ethnicity, or gender, using community-based, context-related, and culturally appropriate approaches within the following sectors: 1. MHPSS (Mental Health and Psychosocial Support) Programme aims to create safe spaces where people can be more capable of managing events that threaten their well-being, to prevent or reduce their negative effects on their everyday lives. Through this programme, HRO works on making MHPSS services easily accessible and meeting the special needs of those people whose lives are burdened by a history of trauma and stress, while also responding to the social, economic, and political impacts of these problems. HRO MHPSS Programme includes: a) mental health integration into health facilities (providing a primary mental health care inside hospitals and MHPSS centers as part of general health care which is more accessible, cost-effective and less stigmatizing); b) Community Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (community-based MHPSS case management approach that meets multiple needs helps people set goals, and links them with different available services and support); c) MHPSS interventions (including clinical supervision, MHPSS focused non-specialized, MHPSS specialized interventions, psychological first aid (PFA), psychosocial support activities, capacity development, advocacy, child and youth psychosocial programmes, and early childhood development). 2. Protection (violence prevention and response) and advocacy programme aims to promote gender equality, affirm and advocate for human rights, provide support to people who have experienced violence, especially the most vulnerable groups (females, children, elderly and persons with disabilities) and raise public awareness about their rights to mitigate and prevent discrimination against them, in addition to providing legal assistance and mine action services. HRO Protection Programme includes: a) Gender-based Violence Programme (preventing and responding to GBV, meeting the needs of GBV survivors, highlighting their exposure to GBV, restoring their dignity while ensuring safe access to these services, in addition to empowering them and supporting their economic independence); b) Child Protection (working with families, caregivers, and communities to promote positive social norms and behaviors to help to prevent violence against children, focusing on 3 main areas: Response, Prevention and Integrated Child Protection in Education); c) Mine Action (through risk education, educational activities aimed at reducing the risk of injuries from mines and unexploded ordnance and Victims' assistance with psychosocial support activities, social inclusion, and referral to other services); d) General Protection and Rule of Law (it helps to restore the dignity of individuals by providing quality protection services for the most vulnerable groups in highly affected areas through: protection monitoring, and legal assistance); e) Protection from Sexual Exploitation and Abuse - PSEA (it aims to preventing and responding to SEA committed by humanitarian workers against affected populations through community-based prevention activities and setting out strategies for creating and maintaining a safe and respectful environment); 3. Peace-building (transitional development) aims to increase people's ability to resolve conflict peacefully and reconstruct communication lines between conflicting parties to create more resilient communities through promoting peacebuilding, non-violent communication, negotiation skills, problem solving, positive coping mechanisms, coexistence, community dialogue, de-escalation mechanisms, common ground methodologies, mediation and intervening in disputes, etc.. We provide assistance in emergencies where needs are often the most acute, and where community resilience may be at its most fragile. We frequently work in complex, protracted crises characterized by long-term or cyclical displacement as well as recurring violence and shocks. Our programme and advocacy work contributes to and promotes durable solutions for displacement. Through this spectrum of work, we seek to bridge the gap between humanitarian and development interventions. The contexts where we work are generally highly volatile, and we often see consecutive waves of displacement, therefore, our programme responses should be developed in a way that ensures greater engagement of beneficiaries, community and local civil authorities, in addition to reinforcing community preparedness and resilience. Hope Revival Organization is also planning to create the "NAFSY" Application (My psychology application), a digital platform that provides psycho-social support services using web-based technologies. Through this innovative application, e-learning and e-counseling services are delivered through the e-learning channel (courses, articles, self-placed psycho-analytical quizzes, games, and blogs), which aims to combat the stigma and enhance the efficiency of direct services sector, constituted by an e-counseling channel, which will ensure the access to mental health counseling services by Syrian refugees living in Turkiye, while ensuring adequate and cost-efficiency services, data confidentiality, and cultural sensitivity. By promoting access to mental health services for refugees via mobile application, HRO aims to address the mental health disorders at refugees and displaced populations and overcome the following barriers they might encounter: language barriers (the high-quality of services is ensured through mental health professionals who are Arabic speakers), stigma and social misconceptions about the mental disorders (addressed through the e-learning portal), and financial barriers (combatted through the cost-effectiveness of the mobile application). As such, the innovative aspects of this prototyped application are as follows: the interlink between the e-learning and e-counseling services; the decent work opportunities provided to mental health professionals coming from the diaspora; the self-sustainability and scalability (achieved through a well-settled fundraising strategy) and the cost-efficiency of the mobile application itself.

On the 11th of March 2011, Japan was hit by one of the most powerful earthquakes ever known to have hit the country. Following the earthquakes, large tsunamis devastated Japan's north-eastern coast, damaging or destroying nearly 40,000 buildings, leaving 20,000 dead. IsraAID's first team arrived on the ground 4 days after the tsunami, and distributed aid, cleaned houses, created child-friendly spaces, and rebuilt schools. During this period, IsraAID discovered a rapidly growing need for psycho-social and post-traumatic care, and has decided to launch the "Japan IsraAID Support Program (JISP)" in August 2013. Drawing on local and foreign knowledge, IsraAID and JISP have provided direct support to the victims and trained thousands of professionals and care providers in MHPSS, offering PTSD prevention, stress-management and leadership workshops. Founded in the aftermath of the great disaster in Tohoku, JISP now operates as one of the leading humanitarian organizations based in Japan's Tohoku Region where very few international NGOs activate.
