Palmera Projects Information

Innovating for sustainable livelihoods. Our vision is to channel the power of human compassion to deliver sustainable projects in the areas of healthcare, education and income generation to marginalised communities. Our mission is to develop an innovative and entrepreneurial approach to humanitarian aid to promote health, education and income creating initiatives to marginalised communities in Australia and Asia. Palmera designs projects that empower beneficiaries to create their own change, and that create leadership and enterpreneurship opportunities so that beneficiaries can champion change in their own community. We do this by innovating sustainable livelihood projects. This means that we design new and creative projects that enable individuals and communities to access a secure a basic income now and in the future. We have 3 types of projects: • Social Businesses Projects; • Livelihood Projects and • Water & Sanitation Projects Social Businesses help create community owned businesses that transform entire towns. Livelihood Projects help vulnerable individuals start their own businesses and find sources of income. Water & Sanitation Projects provide the foundation for community and individual access to a secure income by insuring people have access to clean water and healthy living conditions. Our projects are designed to target the most vulnerable in order to enact the most change. Through sustainable income generation individuals, families and communities become more capable to choose how they want to live their lives.
