Project for People is a non profit organisation active since 1993. It carries out cooperation and development projects in India, Benin, Bosnia and Brazil. The values of the Organisation are the respect of the local culture and of diversity, faith in people and transparency. Therefore the promotion of local development is carried out through projects planned, realized and managed with local partners.

One of the most important purposes of our projects is the self-sustainability: they base themselves on the initial support of the Organisation and then they are independently managed by our local partner.

In this way the results are lasting and bring benefits also in terms of awareness, social culture and human growth of the concerned population.

The beneficiaries are more than 1.000.000 men, women and children in India, Brazil, Benin and Bosnia.

Projects

Through the financing of specific projects and the coordination of volunteers and skilled staff (doctors, engineers, economists) coming from all around the world, with expertise in the area of the projects, the initiatives become concrete works. Over the course of the years, Project for People has enabled the creation of hospitals, doctor’s offices, houses, courses for nurses and doctors, schools, microcredit banks and the setting up of water treatment plants and of health and hygiene structures.
