Annual Report 2024

Empowering people is at the heart of Usthi’s work in India and Nepal. The 2024 Annual Report highlights how the 13 Usthi projects are creating sustainable impact.

„We strive for a world in which children and young people can grow up with dignity and in a supportive environment.“ This vision has guided Usthi‘s work since 1976 and has lost none of its relevance, especially in light of global developments over the past year. Usthi‘s projects provide access to education, create safe spaces for vulnerable children and women, raise awareness, and provide healthcare in remote areas. Usthi projects reached over 46,000 people in India and Nepal in 2024.

We are very pleased to share with you in the annual report the successes and challenges of the past Usthi year. Each contribution provides insight into the daily project work and the collaboration with our five partner organisations.

With your support, we can create future opportunities. Thank you for standing with us in supporting disadvantaged children and young adults.

We wish you an engaging and insightful read.
