What we do
ATIA’s priority is to sustainably increase the vulnerable families’ income. As the difficulties that these families face tend to be interdependent, ATIA follows a holistic approach. It is implemented through individual guidance and integrated activities encouraging access to employment, through three main sectors:
Economic development
Autonomy, improvement of family revenue and access to employment
Contribute to the beneficiaries’ autonomy by encouraging:
> employment (access to training and work placement),
> self-employment (creation and development of income-generating activities through productive loans and business coaching),
> financial-literacy training and savings services.
Health
Disease prevention and access to care to prevent economic development from being hindered by health issues:
> Mutual health insurance (facilitate access to care for families through a micro health-insurance scheme with social health services),
> Referrals to a network of selected health providers, to ensure quality and cut costs for patients,
> Prevention of common diseases through IEC activities (Information, Education and Communication).
Social - family development
Overcome the isolation of marginalised families:
> Start the socio-economic progress of the poorest families by building their capacities and reinforcing their access to basic social services (health, education, legal documents, family planning…).
Social - early childhood development
Support the psychomotor development of very young children to address early specific needs and avoid development delays:
> Durably alleviate poverty through early childhood-development activities for children from underprivileged neighbourhoods.
Specific needs
Target a particular issue with specific activities when justified
> Tuberculosis control in Mumbai (India)
> Preschool and primary school support activities in Antananarivo (Madagascar)
