| Saphara Limited [Charity number: NI104977] Saphara runs teams for sixth form students and teachers from schools on both sides of the community in NI, joined in the common purpose of transforming the lives of children living in poverty in India. The young people have the opportunity to engage with young people from other communities, cultures, religions and ethnicities both here and in India, forming deep and lasting friendships. These encounters are transformative, developing the young people as local and global citizens and stimulating them to greater engagement with the wider community in Northern Ireland and globally. The year-long programme includes workshops, residential weekends, team fundraising and culminates in 16 day trip to India. Here the young people engage with their Indian peers from very disadvantaged communities, teaching English and learning about Indian culture. Learning is in both directions, the NI young people discovering that they have as much to learn from the Indian young people as they do from them. Saphara runs a joint programme for Stranmillis and St Mary’s colleges (under Diversity and Mutual Understanding) giving students and lecturers the unique opportunity to engage with a holistic learning environment in India as part of their school based learning. A similar 3 week Indian teaching programme is run for university students. We take adult teams to India on an annual basis, largely senior educationalists and school principals who share their skills in professional development workshops for Indian teachers. Saphara educates disadvantaged children in 7 NGO-run schools funding teachers’ salaries and capital projects eg classrooms, toilet blocks, science labs; books and school uniforms; midday meals for malnourished children; scholarships for young people especially girls to attend college. Saphara runs adolescent health programmes for marginalised girls in both NGO and government schools improving their status through provision of health and sex education, and life skills. |
