AMURTEL Haiti are working in the following projects— | |||
=== Children's Home === | |||
AMURTEL Haiti runs a children's home that provides shelter to many children. Many children who are neglected or abandoned by their parents live in this centre. Here they find a homely and supportive atmosphere.<ref name="AMURTEL Haiti" /> | |||
=== AMSAI Schools === | |||
AMURTEL Haiti runs two schools in Haiti; one in Port Au Prince, the other in Anse a Pitre. These schools are known as AMSAI schools. These AMSAI schools use [[Neohumanism]] based education philosophy. | |||
=== Microfinance === | |||
In 2010, following the earthquake in Haiti, AMURTEL was informed by women in the refugee camps that they were eager to start small businesses in order to get back their own self-dependence. After some planning, AMURTEL Haiti decided to help these women and started a microfinance project for them. | |||
=== Disaster Relief Programs === | |||
AMURTEL Haiti runs a powerful and effective disaster relief and management program. Initially AMURTEL began working with four local Haitian women trained as community organizers. These four animators were so inspired by their work with AMURTEL that they helped to create a micro finance program to create economic opportunities for the women in the camps. | |||
