Humana People to People Botswana
Welcome to HPP Botswana
Vision:
Humana People to People Botswana envisions a well informed and equipped community with capacity to liberate itself from all forms of dehumanizing ills of society to be able to foster their own developmentMission:
Humana People to People Botswana was formed to implement projects to empower people with tools, knowledge and skills to foster own development in their families, communities and the nation
Established in 2001, Humana People to People Botswana is a national non-profit development organization. Since the beginning, it has been involved in the transformation of poor communities struggling with the negative effects of abject poverty, harsh climatic conditions, scarcity of agricultural resources, and the persistence of the HIV and AIDS pandemic. The organization carries out its projects through grassroots programs designed to empower people with the tools, knowledge and skills necessary to create sustainable long term development. In 2020, the projects reached more than 300,000 people. To achieve the goals reached, Humana People to People Botswana counted on the hard work of more than 200 staff members and 275 volunteers.
We work within programs
Humana People to People works alongside communities across the country to overcome the pressing issues that they face, issues in health, rural development, education and environment. Humana People to People Botswana has developed specific programs in each of these areas. Programs are constantly developed and adapted, including fighting alongside the poor for women’s economic empowerment, for stopping the effects of HIV and AIDS, securing nutrition, promoting conservation agriculture and starting preschool programs.Humana People to People works alongside communities across the country to overcome the pressing issues that they face, issues in health, rural development, education and environment.

Programs are constantly developed and adapted, including fighting alongside the poor for women’s economic empowerment, for stopping the effects of HIV and AIDS, securing nutrition, promoting conservation agriculture and starting preschool programs.An example: Humana People to People Botswana initiated the program Total Community Mobilization (TCM/ TCE). TCM was conducted mainly through door-to-door outreach by dedicated Field Officers and community volunteers to secure detailed knowledge on HIV and AIDS, decrease stigma and discrimination, form supporting structures, encourage people to get tested and understand the benefits of ARVs. The three years’ campaign reached all corners of the country to about half of the Botswana population from 2001 to 2005. This was a frontrunner for the government to scale up ARV treatment.
We operate with projects and project leaders
Each of the districts where we work have a project that defines the geographical area and thereby the people involved in the action. Each project has a Project Leader who stays and works in the same area. The Project Leader and other staff assist the people to organize and to define the problems and define the solutions on a continuous basis with inputs and inclusion of all parties to the community. Many volunteers are mobilized to support the project.
We work in partnership with many
Humana People to People Botswana works in close cooperation with a strong network of community support partners, including the traditional leadership, local authorities, health agencies, NGOs, local and international bilateral and multilateral donors, business leaders, local entities and the Government of Botswana. These partnerships and networks have invariably yielded strong results.
Where we are
Humana People to People worked during 2019 face to face with about 300,000 people in 9 projects in the following districts in Botswana: Ghanzi, Southern, Kweneng, South East. Central and North East.
