VAHATRA

VAHATRA’s main objective is the sustainable improvement of the living conditions of poor families by promoting the development of their autonomy on the financial and economic, structural, social and health levels. To this end, a methodology based on a global approach to the problems encountered by families has been developed.

The microcredit service thus gives vulnerable families wishing to improve their situation the opportunity to benefit from concrete advice, training and loans to enable them to start or develop an Income-Generating Activity.

A part of the families receiving loans, among whom we identify or who express difficulties such as problems of domestic violence, schooling of children, access to contraception, lack of administrative documents … is supported by social support that allows us to provide concrete responses to the problems they encounter. We thus carry out individual follow-up activities for families at home, social permanence, workshops with children and teenagers, awakening workshops for mothers and their youngest child, educational activities with children and exchanges with their parents.

The economic support, combined with actions and complementary and personalized social follow-up, ensure tangible progress for the families and help them improve their lives and become more independent, despite the difficulties of daily life.
