Hopeland pioneers innovative solutions and builds new partnerships to prevent family separation, reunify children who are separated from their families, and mobilize a movement of families to support children who are growing up outside of family care. Hopeland plans to test whether direct cash transfers to female-head households can reduce the risk or prevent parent/child separation and bring children placed in orphanages or living on the streets back home.

What they reported doing

  1. #1 primary $47K
    Medair: Hopeland has partnered with the Swiss humanitarian NGO Medair to collaborate on a project to deliver innovative and sustainable flood shelters in South Sudan. Hopeland's major contribution to this project will be fundraising for a pilot batch of the shelters, which are made from locally sourced re-used products e.g. used rubber tires. The implementation of the project is expected in 2024 and if successful will allow South Sudanese families to mitigate the effects of the devastating flooding that has impacted the region in recent years.
  2. #2 $96K
    Orphanage Trafficking - Hopeland co-authored an article on Orphanage Trafficking, a major advocacy issue for the organization, that appeared in The Global Slavery Index, the leading publication on human trafficking and worldwide efforts to counter this crime. Building on the impact of this article, Hopeland delivered a petition with over 40,000 signatures to the Inter-Parliamentary Union calling on them to end orphanage trafficking in their 180 member countries. Supported by various Hopeland Ambassadors our petition had the needed impact as the Resolution passed unanimously.
