The 2017 annual letter
Changing the world together. A concept with a future.
Hamburg, 22.11.2017
In the past months and years, we have laid the foundations on which the people in the projects can rely. Be it our obstetric clinic in the Danakil Desert in Ethiopia for girls and women affected by female genital mutilation (FGM), the campaigns with our Golden Book for an end to FGM in Guinea-Bissau or the registration in Brazil as an independent organization and the associated authorization to act in a forward-looking manner for the indigenous people and the rainforest.
We can see how important this registration was in the current development of Brazilian policy, which is reaching for the rainforest and thus for one of the largest sources of climate and oxygen.
We have enjoyed your reliable support throughout the years of this work. Together with you, we have shown ourselves to be a constant partner to people, created jobs and started to shape their future with them. We report on this again in this annual letter.
However, we know that our task lies in the future - for girls at risk of mutilation in other regions of Africa and for the preservation of the Amazon rainforest habitat. Our place is right in the middle of it. With the experience of what we have achieved and with the goal of sustainable change. Let's keep going!
