What a difference a few months make! We sent out our last update in early December, which told you about a orphan community support and protection in Sana'a, Yemen
As you know, we are working with social welfare institutions (orphanages) across Yemen, training them and their dorms management people on many diffrent sides of life starting from Gender Basied Violence protection,mental & psychlogical health,including sports and ending with lessons on art and music.
The current epidemic has put our training on hold, although the team have been extremely busy planning for the next phase of our work, converting our training materials into online resources, which will eventually be accessible to orphanages and foster parents across Yemen.
The impact of COVID-19 has had far-reaching implications for all of us. As the virus has spread across the world, we have faced new challenges, including physical and psychological health risks, school and business closures, family confinement, isolation and economic vulnerability.
Now after children returning back to school we supported an activity in school of orphans , in this training children was tought about the importance of planting and the effect of trees in our global enviroment as well as the life cycle of plants.
Each child has planted his plant, which is sponsored and take care of it during the semester and watch their growth
