Women & Girls Empowerment

Humanitarian Assistance

DR Congo

In Bukavu, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), COOPI provides shelter and education to more than 100 young girls accused of being witches by local superstitions. These girls, some as young as six years old, have been forced out of their homes and shunned by their communities. Any time a family tragedy occurs, such as the death of a family member, a severe illness or a financial loss, it's common for ignorance and superstition to blame a young girl, holding her responsible as an "evil witch".

Iraq

Every day thousands of girls & boys in refugee camps in the Middle East and in Africa face dangers, threats and violence to do what is considered normal for other children: going to school. Helping them in their fight means ensuring that they receive an education to improve not only their present situation, but their future. Help COOPI in providing temporary education during emergencies for these little warriors. It is the best investment for a better world.
