PROJECTS

Project in Development
Over the past few years, CSI Luxembourg has supported Kiran Village in Varanasi, a unique facility for children and young people with disabilities and/or those in precarious situations. Several buildings have been renovated and equipped, and teachers in surrounding schools have been made aware of disability issues. This important work will continue in the future. Although the project is currently on hold for a while, we are committed to continuing our support for the children and young people of Kiran Village. We remain in contact with Kiran Village and will inform you here as soon as a new project is launched.

Education is a real luxury in Bangladesh, especially for people from ethnic minorities, girls, and children with disabilities. However, for the country's development, it is important for all children to be able to attend school in order to break the vicious cycle of illiteracy and poverty in the long term. Education not only helps solve the problem of overpopulation, improve medical care and waste disposal, but also helps people find decent employment.

Despite its magnificent landscapes, Tanzania is one of the poorest countries in the world. Most people make their living from agriculture, even though only 5% of the land is suitable for agricultural purposes. Although the country boasts various natural resources, its industry is very underdeveloped. The education system, for its part, is not without flaws either. The literacy rate is only 70%! For children in rural areas, schools are often too far away, and some parents see no point in sending their children to school. They prefer to use them to help with household chores or work in the fields. In the central region of Iringa, this situation is set to change.
