Access to Sport - Children with disabilities - Conflict victims - Healthy lifestyle - Personal developmentContext
Most undocumented children in Taiwan are the children of migrant workers. These families face numerous difficulties. Migrant women who fall pregnant usually skip antenatal check-ups because they are afraid of being reported to the authorities. Moreover, since these mothers are undocumented, their children are not covered by the health insurance system, Delayed treatment can exacerbate medical conditions and can even lead to death.
Project goals
- Save 140 undocumented children from danger and death.
- Provide 30 children with developmental support to help them catch up with their peers.
- Help 50 undocumented children between the ages of three and seven to access sport.
- Helping undocumented mothers and their children return safely to their countries of origin.
Project content
- Provide undocumented mothers with shelter and 24-hour care for their children.
- Ensure that undocumented children receive the necessary vaccines, health check-ups and early intervention (weekly occupational therapy or physiotherapy) in the case of delayed development, which affects around 50% of these children.
- Weekly football training sessions for ten children between the ages of five and seven, and friendly matches.
- Yoga sessions delivered by a volunteer yoga studio at Harmony House twice a month for ten children.
