WHERE AND HOW WE OPERATE NEWS

Maisha Onlus Safi decided to cooperate with a voluntary organization called English CHILDREN OF AFRICA . The president is Susanna Gom ez Solè , a girl who for years has traveled to Kenya to help AIDS Orphanage Likoni (and it is That's why we met), but this year decided to shift its attention to a rural village called TSUNZA (Mombasa).
Tsunza is a town of about 10,000 inhabitants of the district of Kinango (Kwale), one of the poorest parts of Kenya. 75% of the population lives below the poverty line because of:

- Limited infrastructure development. For example, roads, electricity, acqu a, etc..

- Low agricultural production due to problems in land ownership

- Marketing agricultural products and poor undeveloped

- Base agro-industrial poor

- Lack of an efficient hospital


The main economic activities are the ' agriculture, livestock and fisheries, but climate change has caused a great impact in the environment damaging virtually all crops, without causing a deterioration of their more serious situation. It must be emphasized too and that the rate of 'AIDS is very high (33.2% of the population is infected), so measures are needed to increase knowledge and health education. In addition, overcrowding has a direct impact on basic needs like water, food, health and education . This implies that efforts are needed to address this population growth and economic constraints that growth entails.

All the projects we have done during the summer of 2010 (the photos are in the Projects section Tsunza '10) have been thoroughly researched and designed by her. Considering all its good intentions and objectives we have gladly supported his initiatives and will continue to do so n that in the future, actively working for the socio-economic of this village!
