  • 16 September 2018, Sohal Tole, Jahada rural municipality, Nepal: Gobinda Mohali shows how he rides a bike packed with baskets to the town of Biratnagar, to sell them at the market there. Basket making is a traditional skill among the Mohali (Tarai Dalits, meaning Dalits living on the plainlands of eastern Nepal), but it is only recently that they have been able to access the market and start selling their goods, in the nearby town of Biratnagar, Province 1, Nepal. Access has been made possible through support from the Nepal Evangelical Lutheran Church. Sohal Tole is a community inhabited by Santal and Dalit (Musahar) people, who find themselves as the very margin of society in Nepal. The 54 households are supported by the Nepal Evangelical Lutheran Church, as they mobilize together on disaster preparedness, income generating activities, financial governance, and mobilization on sanitation, education and entrepreneurship. The community project also receives technical support from the Lutheran World Federation World Service programme.

  • 2 March 2017, Morija, Maseru district, Lesotho: A boy walks by Scott Hospital with his bike. The hospital is run by the Lesotho Evangelical Church in Southern Africa and is a founding member of the Christian Health Association of Lesotho. It is located in the village of Morija, and operates and supervises clinics in the Maseru District of Lesotho. Scott started out as a dispensary in 1864, and today offers comprehensive healthcare Mondays-Fridays, as well as pharmaceutical services around the clock. Lesotho suffers from high numbers in Tuberculosis in disesase and mortality, and so the hospital screens all patients for TB. The hospital observes among many patients what they describe as ”low health-seeking behaviour”, services are increasing and demand rising, but space and human resources are a challenge, as is funding. I key concern is one of infrastructure, where the original design of the hospital matches poorly with current needs, as departments and buildings are scattered, posing a challenge for security. Another challenge is to adapt donation structures, so as to be able to receive payments electronically. The hospital has one ambulance, which they describe as not enough, but what they have. Another challenge is that lack of funds affects maintenance of buildings and infrastructure, as the immediate care of patients take priority. PLEASE NOTE: This photo is not to be used in social media.

  • 13 October 2022, Ichnya, Ukraine: 41-year-old Victoria Hlushko pictured outside what used to be her family home in the village of Bil’machivka, until Russian forces invaded Ukraine in February 2022 and the apartment was destroyed in the fighting that ensued. Inheriting the apartment from her father eight years ago, Victoria lived in the apartment with her husband, their son (3 years) and daughter (13 years) until the day it was destroyed. She recalls the family being just about to enter the apartment when an explosion hit the building as fighting between Russian and Ukrainian forces took place at the road outside. They sought shelter in the basement, but as it became filled with smoke, they had to exit through an emergency back door and take shelter in another building in the village. The village of Bil’machivka, a community of just over 500 people north of Ichnya, Chernihiv Oblast, was just on the route taken by Russian military forces as they marched towards Kyiv following the invasion of Ukraine in the early spring of 2022. Many people lost their homes in this period, as fighting and attacks led to houses being either severely damaged, or simply razed to the ground.

  • 18 October 2022, Bytom, Poland: Five-year-old Sofija from Ukraine rides a kickbike in the playing room for children in the building where she lives. Sofija arrived in Poland with her sister Liliia (14) and their mother, Katiia Kharytoniuk, from Uman, Ukraine in March 2022, following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. After three months staying in the home of a Polish family, the three now live in a building at the Evangelical Church of the Augsburg Confession in Poland parish in Bytom. The family has two rooms for themselves, and share a kitchen, bathroom and a playing room for children with a couple of other families from Ukraine. Katiia is an economist, and before fleeing the war, worked as a sales manager at a factory manufacturing furniture. The father of the family remains in Ukraine, as at times of war, men aged 18-60 are not allowed to leave the country, under martial law.

  • 16 November 2018, San José de León, Mutatá, Antioquia, Colombia: Staff of the project De la Guerra a la Paz eat lunch together with other organizational partners in the community of San José de León. Following the 2016 peace treaty between FARC and the Colombian government, a group of ex-combatant families have purchased and now cultivate 36 hectares of land in the territory of San José de León, municipality of Mutatá in Antioquia, Colombia. A group of 27 families first purchased the lot of land in San José de León, moving in from nearby Córdoba to settle alongside the 50-or-so families of farmers already living in the area. Today, 50 ex-combatant families live in the emerging community, which hosts a small restaurant, various committees for community organization and development, and which cultivates the land through agriculture, poultry and fish farming. Though the community has come a long way, many challenges remain on the way towards peace and reconciliation. The two-year-old community, which does not yet have a name of its own, is located in the territory of San José de León in Urabá, northwest Colombia, a strategically important corridor for trade into Central America, with resulting drug trafficking and arms trade still keeping armed groups active in the area. Many ex-combatants face trauma and insecurity, and a lack of fulfilment by the Colombian government in transition of land ownership to FARC members makes the situation delicate. Through the project De la Guerra a la Paz (‘From War to Peace’), the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Colombia accompanies three communities in the Antioquia region, offering support both to ex-combatants and to the communities they now live alongside, as they reintegrate into society. Supporting a total of more than 300 families, the project seeks to alleviate the risk of re-victimization, or relapse into violent conflict.

Scott Hospital is run by the Lesotho Evangelical Church in Southern Africa and is a founding member of the Christian Health Association of Lesotho. It is located in the village of Morija, and operates and supervises clinics in the Maseru District of Lesotho. Scott started out as a dispensary in 1864, and today offers comprehensive healthcare Mondays-Fridays, as well as pharmaceutical services around the clock. Lesotho suffers from high numbers in Tuberculosis in disesase and mortality, and so the hospital screens all patients for TB. The hospital observes among many patients what they describe as ”low health-seeking behaviour”, services are increasing and demand rising, but space and human resources are a challenge, as is funding. I key concern is one of infrastructure, where the original design of the hospital matches poorly with current needs, as departments and buildings are scattered, posing a challenge for security. Another challenge is to adapt donation structures, so as to be able to receive payments electronically. The hospital has one ambulance, which they describe as not enough, but what they have. Another challenge is that lack of funds affects maintenance of buildings and infrastructure, as the immediate care of patients take priority.
