In it's projects, Yme focuses on particularly marginalized
groups. The organization continually seeks to aid the most
impoverished areas in the countries it operates in, areas where few
other NGO's are active.
Another of Yme's project aims is to anchor it's work to local partner organizations. This is done to secure the commitment of both local community and government.
Yme is active in four African countries:
Although sanitation technology has improved dramatically, the inequitable distribution of water resources leave 1.2 billion people without access to clean water. 2.6 billion people lack access to basic sanitation. Together, these deprivations cause a child to die every eight seconds. 80% of all illness and death in developing countries is attributable to the lack of clean water and basic sanitation.
Despite these disturbing facts, there are few organizations focusing solely in this field. Yme has more than 15 years experience in water projects, in this time developing a large network of partners in water distribution and supplies.
Yme prioritizes vocational training because it provides its students with accredited knowledge. Yme wishes to contribute to young people's career progress and their further professional development.
The vocational training model which Yme uses is based on a philosophy where knowledge, curriculum and methodology are exchanged between schools in the different project countries. Our vocational institutions prioritize marginalized candidates, among them orphans, prisoners who have served their terms, and people with disabilities.
Yme projects aim to be catalysts for development.
