The challenge

From ignorance to development

Papua, the last colony of the Netherlands, is an unknown region for most people. Current Papuan society struggles with poverty, marginalization and corruption. Especially the indigenous population, many of whom are Christians, are confronted with a lack of perspective. To a large extent, this is caused by the absence of proper education. Karunia faces the challenge of breaking through the existing system and transforming it through meaningful education.

Our solution

Meaningful education

Karunia tackles the existing problems at its source and forms young people into engaged, responsible teachers. The Teach the Teacher principle creates self-esteem, offers autonomy and makes teams jointly responsible for quality. In this way Karunia offers a structural solution for the long term.
