What we do

Core activities and projects we support

At ERA-UK, our core activities revolve around supporting projects that make a tangible difference in the lives of Eritrean communities. By channeling resources and expertise into key areas, we aim to foster sustainable development and improve the overall quality of life for people in Eritrea. Our dedicated efforts are focused on three main sectors: health, education, and technology. Through strategic investments and community-driven initiatives, we strive to address the most pressing challenges and unlock the full potential of Eritrea's people and resources. Here’s a closer look at each area:

Health

We are committed to improving the health of our community as it is paramount for development:

• Enhancing Healthcare Facilities: Investing in the renovation and expansion of hospitals and clinics to ensure they are equipped to provide high-quality care.
• Providing Essential Medical Supplies: Supplying necessary medications, equipment, and materials to healthcare centers to improve their operational capacity.
• Supporting Health Education Programs: Funding initiatives that educate communities on important health issues, promoting preventative care and healthier lifestyles.

Education

Education is the cornerstone of development, and we support this sector through:

• Building Educational Infrastructure: Constructing and refurbishing schools, libraries, and other educational facilities to create conducive learning environments.
• Providing Resources and Materials: Ensuring that students and teachers have access to necessary books, supplies, and technological tools.
• Promoting Skill Development Programs: Supporting vocational training and skill development initiatives to equip individuals with the skills needed for gainful employment.

Technology

We recognise the transformative power of technology and focus on:

• Enhancing study environments: Focused on improving schools, community centres and other crucial areas to create opportunities for progress.
• Supporting STEM Education: Investing in programs that teach coding, digital literacy, and other STEM skills to prepare the youth for future.
• Fostering Innovation Hubs: Establishing centres that encourage innovation and entrepreneurship, providing resources and mentorship for aspiring tech entrepreneurs.

By focusing on these three pivotal areas, ERA-UK aims to create a robust foundation for sustainable growth and development in Eritrea. Our projects are designed to not only address immediate needs but also to empower communities and build capacities for long-term progress. Through collaboration with local stakeholders, continuous monitoring, and adaptive strategies, we ensure that our interventions are effective and aligned with the needs and aspirations of the Eritrean people.
