India Karunalaya
Karunalaya’s work seeks to ensure that the legal rights of street children, pavement dwellers and impoverished local communities are realised.
Meeting children and young people on the streets, recognising the trauma they experience, working with their families, challenging negative perceptions and advocating for their rights.
Life for girls and young women on the streets is particularly hard and the support they need is often challenging to provide. Our aim is to help teenage girls and young women on the streets to realise their rights.
Our partners have developed highly focused, local responses to reach children and young people on the streets. Amos Trust is committed to supporting our partners’ innovative work with girls and young women on the streets in particular.
We currently partner with Umthombo in South Africa, New Generation in Burundi, Karunalaya in India and Cheka Sana Foundation in Tanzania.

“During these times, Karunalaya staff came to us, to hear about our situation. They told us not to be afraid, and I was encouraged by their advice. This comforted us very much.” As we launch our autumn Don’t Stop Now! Appeal, read about one young 14 year-old girl and her family in India who are receiving support from our partner Karunalaya. Amos’ On Her Terms Lead Karin Joseph writes.
We work alongside grass-roots partners in Palestine, South Africa, Nicaragua, Burundi, India and Tanzania.
Reaching children on the streets, addressing their trauma, working with them and their families to reintegrate them into their homes, to realise their rights and recover their future.
Working with local and international peace activists, and partnering with grass-roots projects, to call for a just peace, reconciliation and full equal rights for all Palestinians and Israelis.
Addressing the impact of climate change and the causes of extreme poverty, building sustainable rural communities and empowering them to realise their rights.
Bringing people together to meet our partners from around the world, visiting the communities they work in and seeing their projects in action — building solidarity and lasting friendships.
