RET is giving hope through education in Mbera. Every child deserves a chance to learn, dream, and build a better future. In Mbera refugee camp, too many children have had their education disrupted. That’s why RET is working to bridge the gap—this year, we’ve enrolled 650+ out-of-school children, in our Accelerated Learning Program. But education isn’t just about books and classrooms, it’s about opportunity. It’s about giving children the skills to shape their own futures. We’ve also worked with 2,000 refugee parents, helping them understand the importance of education and ensuring long-term support for their children. Because learning is not a privilege, it’s a right. Let’s stand together and make sure no child is left behind.

How RET & UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency are restoring hope after floods in Niger? As part of the Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) initiative, families in Liboré and N’dounga received essential kits to support their well-being and restore normalcy. These kits included buckets, fabric wraps (pagne), shoes, slips, cotton, flashlights, and hijabs, meeting the needs of vulnerable families. The distribution, attended by local authorities, civil protection services, and community leaders, was marked by gratitude and encouragement for continued support from RET, UNHCR, and CIAUD. The symbolic handover brought joy to the beneficiaries, reaffirming the impact of humanitarian aid in restoring hope.

On this World Water Day, let’s unite to protect and sustainably manage water for all. In Mali, RET is empowering vulnerable communities to enhance access to clean water and promote sustainable water management practices, focusing on long-term resilience in the Ségou region. Climate-Adaptive Agriculture: RET collaborates with ALPHALOG to train farmers in sustainable techniques, such as creating bio-pesticides from local materials. These practices improve soil fertility, reduce reliance on chemical inputs, and ensure sustainable farming. Vocational Training: In partnership with organizations like REFOR, RET provides vocational programs, including sanitary plumbing, equipping individuals with the skills to enhance local water systems and livelihoods. Our interventions combine employability, food security, and peaceful community relations, ensuring rural communities can thrive with this vital resource.
