The deaf person's challenges start at home, with his family. It is evident that the biggest challenge is communication and the learning limitations resulting from it. One of the many problems Global Ahead collaborators have been dealing with is family conflicts. To this end, we have promoted courses and actions that reach the families of our students and even deaf couples! We also promote advice and lectures aimed at conflict resolution. With this, we aim to improve the quality of life of the deaf in a global way.

Unlike other countries, there is still much to be done about raising society's awareness of the life challenges of the deaf in Jordan. As a result, Global Ahead, through its network of collaborators on-site also carries out activities in schools to make children aware of our cause and promote better acceptance of the deaf in society.

Pamosi's mission is to provide the integral development of children, teenagers and young people who are deaf, dumb and blind, involving the participation of their families, through basic academic education, professional guidance, and social and spiritual assistance, preparing them for life and the exercise of citizenship.

The moment of the break is one of the most awaited by children. The deaf students from different classes take advantage of this time to play and talk.

Students at Pamosi School arrive without knowing the Angolan Sign Language. The School has been a privileged social space for the development of this language.

The interaction between deaf students has increased over time as they can ask questions and expand their knowledge about the world. More than a place to learn Portuguese written or mathematics, we are happy because, for our students, Pamosi's School has been a space for constituting identity and cultural and group relevance.

Maira came to the House of Peace in India when she was 5 years old with her younger brother who was almost 4 years old. She comes from a very poor place in the country. Her father died and her mother was suffering from mental illness.

She had a great desire to continue her education so after high school, she was admitted to one of the best colleges in India. Today, after graduation she said: “By the grace of God, I have got my degree and had a beautiful graduation program."

‌She works now in a hospitality and trading company as an accountant and already made plans to study for a Master's Business Program (MBA) in Human Resources.

Anemia, a silent illness, is one of the most frequent diseases associated with malnutrition. Anemia is not fatal in most cases, but it weakens the body and favors conditions for infections and more serious diseases.

At Our Bread's project, in Burkina Faso, Africa, Boukari, a 7-year-old child, arrived with a high fever, showing the characteristic symptoms of anemia. The family reported that they were thinking about getting him out of school, as he could not keep up with classes. He was always tired and discouraged. Some tests revealed profound anemia and malaria. Global Ahead collaborators explained to the family that it would be possible to have treatment for both problems and that the poor performance in the class was related to Boukary's clinical condition. They shouldn't give up on school!

He received specific malaria medications and followed treatment with iron supplementation for 6 months. We also followed up with the family, providing guidance on how to improve the quality of food. 

After some time, we received the news that Boukary became one of the best students in the class, returned to playing and running like a healthy child.

Proper treatment and some simple care changed Boukary's destiny!
