What People Say About TDH
Partnership for us is not only financial support, but actually a humane agreement of co-creation and collective responsibility for universal wellbeing. Our partnership with tdh-GIP, is a set of actions for framing dreams and goals together; we have witnessed debates, arguments, and collectiveness at different times. Tdh is an institution with empathy and that is the reason it allows us, as a partner, to think and act comprehensively and act accordingly. Why it matters? It matters, because, in Vikas Samvad we intend to design interventions not only to conduct activities but also to create a thinking base around the issues and subjects by discussing 5 Ws and 1 H (What, Where, Wo, Why, When, and How) and Tdh-GIP provides this space for collective thinking.
“YUVA was formally established with support from tdh and since then we have continued to maintain a strong relationship over the years. Tdh believes in investing in equal partnerships, and the staff are sensitive to developmental realities and cultivate a culture of mutual respect with partners. Their holistic approach to child rights ensures that strategies on the ground are responsive and outcome oriented.“
“It has been a transformational journey of empirical learning to work with TDH in so many special ways. Co – decision model is a wonderful model which has transformed the working culture in many ways. It has democratized the whole functioning process of ideas and implementation. It’s been a privilege and great pleasure to work with TDH since 2003. TDH’s motivation is inspirational in building perspective on the issue of Child right. It’s a great honor to let you know, AMAN’s work in margins of mountains in Child Right has got State Recognition.”
As an organization dedicated to the welfare and upliftment of the visually impaired, we aspire to achieve numerous impactful goals. To realize these aspirations, we continually seek the support of like-minded institutions willing to join us as our valued partners. Terre des Hommes Germany has been one such invaluable partner, playing a pivotal role in helping us provide top-tier co-curricular training to 170 visually impaired girls studying at the NFBM Jagriti School for Blind Girls. This meaningful five-year partnership has enabled our students to learn the German language and engage in complex sports like table tennis. As a result of this collaboration, many of our talented students have not only participated in competitive sports but have also successfully cleared challenging German language examinations. The timely guidance and supportive approach of Terre des Hommes Germany have been the cornerstones of our enduring relationship, empowering us to create new opportunities for our students. This has truly been one of the most enriching and impactful partnerships we have had the privilege of experiencing.

Their effective and realistic approach has made a tangible difference, and we are proud of the impact we've been able to create together.
