  What we do
World Partners for Development invests in that of vulnerable people through community
development
initiatives in health, education, and  the environment. Our programs are
associated with real life modern and traditional communication methods which better
communicate with people who can not
even read or write. Our non-profit work extends help to
all people, regardless of their religious beliefs, gender, race, or ethnic background.



EDUCATION
Educating the mind with valuable information is a strong librating force in human
development. Education is also a very powerful tool to combat poverty. Our education
program empowers society in two ways. The Rural Education Program, and the Gateway to
Global Knowledge Program.

Rural Education Program: We improve lives in underserved rural and orphanage schools
through educational materials assistance, and
solar light system support for students night
studies.

Gateway to Global Knowledge Program:  WPD partner with other organizations to give the
young and adult the power to share and interact  within a culturally diverse and globally
interconnected world. People and communities  worldwide are connected through  video  
conferencing educational programs on global  issues. Topics include, health, community  
development, environment, technology, political-systems,
faith and society, entrepreneurship,
art
s, culture, and many more.

HEALTH
WPD uses innovative behavior change communication programs, research and evaluation,
and appropriate public health practice to motivate people adopt and sustain healthy
behaviors and lifestyles. We
also use our high impact health programs to address health
problems affecting humanity. Areas of emphasis include obesity, nutrition and exercise,  
prevention of HIV/
AIDs, malaria, and water borne diseases.
Our dedicated work with public health organizations, local and state government agencies,
federal agencies
, and the building the capacity of local groups and communities has helped
us in the implementation of effective health programs that has transformed the lives of many
people.

ENVIRONMENT
In order to reduce poverty and achieve sustained development, it must be done in
conjunction with a healthy planet. We educate communities on environmental sustainability
because it plays a major role in global economic and social well-being. Land and water need
to be managed effectively so they are able to maintain human basic ability to produce more
food, and thus combat world hunger.
