OUR GUIDING PRINCIPLES
Here are the
guiding principles which we have
decided upon to rule our work in Vietnam:
1. Our
organization wants to help truly needy people aiming to avoid long-term
dependence on aid where ever possible. Any aid granted is carefully
considered
beforehand to adhere to this principle.
2.
In our work, we show respect for the culture, dignity and
values of all people.
3. We work together closely with
our local project partners.
4.
Measures for assistance are only initiated after acquiring the
necessary background
information and the full agreement
of everyone concerned.
5. It is our goal that families
involved shall be put into a position to fully take charge of
their own finances again within a predictable period of time. It is to
be expected in
most cases that this will happen once the
children have completed their
professional training and
have found themselves jobs.
6. Expenses for administration for
all projects are to be kept as low as possible. In
Germany, all work is done by volunteers, and the paid staff in Vietnam
are all locals.
