Vidya Sagar is a multi-disciplinary centre where speech and occupational therapy, physiotherapy, and education are taught using a holistic approach to children and young adults suffering from cerebral palsy. The primary aim of Vidya Sagar (formerly known as the Spastic Society of India) is to empower the disabled to become independent, go out into the community and lead a better quality of life as they often suffer from being marginalized both by society and their family. Facilities such as the Employment Education Centre train adults for work in the outside world. Vidya Sagar also concentrates on involving the families and has been successful in training and motivating parents to treat the child as they would treat a normal, able-bodied child with their Home Management Program.
South India - The Belaku Trust
The Belaku Trust works in villages in rural Karnataka, serving poor and marginalised households, with an emphasis on women and children. They promote health and development, achieving this through research, community-based interventions and collaboration with existing service providers. The ultimate aim is that their work will help people to help themselves. Our tours to southern India meet with the Belaku Trust and accompany their workers on their community rounds.
Ecuador - The Galapagos Conservation Trust
The London-based Galapagos Conservation Trust (GCT) actively works to contribute to the successful management of the Galapagos ecosystem and to raise awareness of, and funds for, the conservation needs of Galapagos. The GCT is the primary source of information and comment in the UK on conservation in the Galapagos Islands. It believes that well managed tourism, where the local population of Galapagos benefits, is an important source of income for Ecuador. JBT pays a year's subscription for each participant on a Galapagos tour.
