This partnership continues and strengthens existing collaboration between SOS Children’s Villages and the Hempel Foundation, which currently consists of projects in Ethiopia, Somaliland and Tanzania. The partnership will add additional resources to the current project in Tanzania and enable a regional approach to documentation and learning of the existing projects.
The additional resources to the project in Tanzania will allow for a project extension and adding of a care component which is currently included in the Somaliland and Ethiopia projects. This will bring the three projects on the same track in terms of duration and components.
