Season 2, Episode 1: We’re kicking off the second season of Amos webinars with a discussion around how Covid-19 has affected girls and young women living on the street. Hear from Karunalaya, Amos’ partner in India, as well as Glad’s House, our friends from Kenya. With Paul Sunder Singh (pictured) and Bakiyam Sunder Singh in India and Liz Mnengwa in Kenya with Amos’ own Karin Joseph. Full details.
Season 2, Episode 2: Important conversations about colonialism, empire and its legacy have been prominent throughout 2020. At Amos Trust, we know that without constant reflection and learning, organisations like ours can be guilty of perpetuating this painful legacy. Join Dieudonne Nahimana from New Generation in Burundi, and Mpendulo Nyembe from Umthombo in South Africa, as they discuss the legacy of colonisation in their countries.
We are asking women around the UK to do something they love doing to raise awareness and vital funds to support Amos’ Women 4 Women Appeal 2020. The aim is to support women in Gaza through the breast cancer screening programme at Al Ahli Hospital in Gaza City. What will you do?

“White supremacy is not only found in extreme acts of horrific violence such as the recent murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor or Tony McDade in the USA. Racism is insidious, and the reality is that we all operate within the structures of white supremacy.” Amos Trust’s Karin Joseph writes about the Black Lives Matter movement.
We work alongside grass-roots partners in Palestine, South Africa, Nicaragua, Burundi, India and Tanzania.
Reaching children on the streets, addressing their trauma, working with them and their families to reintegrate them into their homes, to realise their rights and recover their future.
Working with local and international peace activists, and partnering with grass-roots projects, to call for a just peace, reconciliation and full equal rights for all Palestinians and Israelis.
Addressing the impact of climate change and the causes of extreme poverty, building sustainable rural communities and empowering them to realise their rights.
Bringing people together to meet our partners from around the world, visiting the communities they work in and seeing their projects in action — building solidarity and lasting friendships.
At the core of Amos Trust’s work are the individuals who support us. Our work is made possible by you. Large or small, your donation makes a real difference.
