Childhood Rescue Project is an ongoing initiative to help and enable children in risky situations to retain their childhood. Increasingly endangered by war, natural disasters, migration, child labor, violence, early marriage and even excessive access to technology, our project's objective is to widen their opportunities for free and structured play, to keep their creative spark.
By playing, children maintain the connection between their inner selves and the outside world in a harmonious way, thus having a fair chance to grow as whole beings, mentally, emotionally and physically healthy.
​
Our goal is to affirm the inherent human capacity to create, whether in free play or creative expression from a framework of minimal interference and maximum self-sufficiency.​
​
A fundamental tenet of the CHILDHOOD RESCUE PROJECT is to dignify the knowledge base the kids already possess, relying on minimal material means to enable its expression, so they will be able to carry on by themselves going forward. In brief, we see lo-tech as the key to the project’s longevity.
