Building Resiliency highlights the critical role of communities to withstand natural or human-induced disasters and rebuild both their foundations and infrastructures. ASA Foundation´s post-disaster response programs build the resiliency skills of vulnerable male and female youth and adults with and without disabilities to endure hardship and adapt to misfortunes and setbacks in life.
Since 2005, we have been collaborating with the U.S. Embassy, UNICEF, Caritas Germany, CRS, Muslim Aid and Handicap International across Tacloban in the Philippines (post-typhoon) together with Aceh (post-tsunami) and Java (post-earthquakes) in Indonesia to provide post-disaster trauma relief and psychosocial activities followed by grass roots school and community education programs designed to build resiliency, provide linkages to essential resources, and develop sustainable relationships with local government partners.
We deliver Trauma Relief & Psychosocial activities followed by Building Resiliency education through intuitive Training of Trainer (ToT) and Youth Development (YD) participatory learning workshops, digital learning platforms and inclusive Edu-Sports training activities.
