BEHIND THE BEHAVIOUR

 

TBRI MANTRA- 

Many of our children come from complex families and may have been victims of poverty, famine and genocide. 

 

The history behind a country like Rwanda has left entire generations of young people with psychological problems and difficulties in relating to one another which could be termed as “relational trauma.

 

The social skills of our children, influenced by the context from which they come, interfere in their process of maturational development. For this reason, from Gisimba we work to improve the quality of life of these groups, offering educational programs after school programs that provide the opportunity to continue learning and interacting with other children. We offer workshops and classes in different disciplines to complement the formal education received in the schools.

 

We believe that all children have the right to a decent and quality education. For all this, from Gisimba we work under the Trauma-informed intervention called Trust-Based-Relational Intervention.

 

Our programs are thought, discussed, designed and taught taking into account the great variety of factors and psychosocial differences that our children may have. 

Many of them do not have parents, others live in families with limited resources, others have been born and raised in families with a lot of trauma and abuse, generating an entire generation of young people with a lack of self-knowledge and emotional regulation.

Our educational services consider the individual differences of each student and thus allow us to intervene.

Our volunteers are trained in a trauma-informed approach of TBRI to learn how contextual factors can influence a child's behavior and how it can be well shaped.

 

We firmly believe that every child can progress and improve, as long as the teacher gives them a hand and offers them enough tools on their personal learning journey. We are committed to inclusive education, and we emphasize the psychological understanding of children from hard places.
