The GMA Napoli has been operating in the communities of Halaba, Asella and Shashamane, in Ethiopia for more than 15 years. The association’s mission is to enhance the Ethiopian social and cultural heritage and promote the integral development of the individual, looking at their fundamental rights. The tool through which it acts is the SaD – Distance Support – with which it is possible to guarantee a home, medical care, education, and training for children and women.
The GMA Napoli supports several micro-projects in the most disparate sectors of intervention (water, reforestation, health, women, and education), actively contributing to the human and economic self-determination of people. In Italy, the association’s attention is aimed at spreading knowledge by collaborating with schools of all levels, parishes, and local associations.
