In Lima, many children and adolescents live and work on the streets, exposed to violence, and severe discrimination. For many, the street becomes a means of survival following family violence, family breakdown, or extreme poverty. Over the past several years, we have witnessed a worrying increase in the number of children in street situations, as well as a deterioration in their living conditions. Finding food, securing shelter, and simply surviving have become increasingly dangerous and challenging for these children. In response to this reality, FAAI is launching the PASO project (Programme for Support and Solidarity for Youth in Street Situations in Peru) in partnership with three new local organizations: Sinergia por la Infancia, Casa Generación, and the collective Hagamos visible lo invisible (“Making the Invisible Visible”). Together, we are joining forces around a shared objective: to strengthen the protection and support available to children and young people in street situations in Lima while promoting and defending their rights.

We are seeking an experienced fundraising and development professional with an active network of partners in German-speaking Switzerland, in order to grow and diversify FAAI’s income and establish a local presence.

On the International Day for Children in Street Situations (12 April), we joined forces with our partners to highlight a simple but essential truth: health is a right for every child. Yet, in many countries, millions of children are still deprived of real access to healthcare. This is particularly alarming for children in street situations, whose extremely precarious living conditions severely undermine their health: lack of access to safe drinking water, exposure to pollution, poor hygiene, exposure to disease, and the absence of medical follow-up.

Supporting young people in vulnerable situations is at the heart of our mission. This is why, in 2019, we founded The Birdhouse restaurant to support young people, helping them rebuild their confidence and achieve lasting social integration. In Geneva, The Birdhouse is much more than just a restaurant. It is a place where young people train for careers in the hospitality industry through recognised and certified apprenticeships, while also receiving personalised support to help them build their future. Awen’s journey, a cooking apprentice, is a powerful example: discover the experience of this young apprentice and his trainer.
