Healthy New Generations

Who do we work with?

Cultivating Hope

We provide a safe space for participants to share their life experiences, acquire tools to strengthen their emotional bonds with their children, and receive guidance from trained professionals.

Mothers, fathers, and caregivers

The program is designed for mothers, fathers and caregivers of young children ages 0-5 living in environments affected by armed conflict, forced displacement and migration.

Children

Through their mothers, fathers, and caregivers, we impact thousands of infants aged 05. 

Allies

We work alongside academic, governmental, and business partners who share our vision of supporting families and promoting the well-being of future generations. Our collective goal is to foster a secure and affectionate atmosphere that enables children to thrive.

“I learned to apologize to my children; I never realized they felt the burdens I carried. I learned to apologize to them because they are not to blame for anything. I learned to think and carefully consider my steps before taking them. They are my mirror, and if I want better children, I have to start by changing.” Participant from Bogotá, 2015 

"Our program is aimed at primary caregivers, providing them with tools to process their experiences and establish strong connections with their children."
