We also train and raise awareness among teachers so they can better support students in their education and personal development.<\/li>\n<li>At <strong>Kapale Primary School in Zimbabwe<\/strong>, we built a 120-metre-deep well, installed 700 metres of pipes and a 10,000-litre water tank, and set up a 20 kVA solar system. The school now has water and electricity, helping girls and boys study in safer conditions.<\/li>\n<li>In the <strong>Rohingya camps in Cox\u2019s Bazar, Bangladesh<\/strong>, we run Child Centres where children take part in educational activities, structured play and psychosocial support. This helps us continue to protect them and provide a space to learn while they are displaced.<\/li>\n<li>In <strong>Pursat, Cambodia<\/strong>, we support eight remote schools along Tonle Sap, reaching 2,085 students, teachers and community representatives with learning materials, digital tools and life-skills activities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"vidiemme-block contact-boxes  \" >\n  \n  <div class=\"container-xl\">\n    <div class=\"contact-box mb-4\">\n      <h3><span style=\"color: #ed1c24;\"><strong>Any questions?<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If you would like to ask us something or need more information, write to\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:sostenitori.ch@actionaid.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sostenitori.ch@actionaid.org<\/a> or call us at +41 91 922 65 42.<\/p>\n\n      <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n<div class=\"vidiemme-block faq-band  \" >\n  \n  <div class=\"container-xl\">\n    <div class=\"title mb-4\">Frequently asked questions<\/div>\n    \n\n          <div class=\"accordion\" id=\"accordion-6ad0bfab24539\">\n              <div class=\"accordion-item\">\n          <div class=\"accordion-header\">\n            <button class=\"accordion-button collapsed\" type=\"button\" data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\" data-bs-target=\"#accordion-6ad0bfab24539-0\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-controls=\"accordion-6ad0bfab24539-0\">\n              <h3>How is the money from donations used?<\/h3>\n            <\/button>\n          <\/div>\n          <div id=\"accordion-6ad0bfab24539-0\" class=\"accordion-collapse collapse\" data-bs-parent=\"#accordion-6ad0bfab24539\">\n            <div class=\"accordion-body\">\n              <p>Gift donations symbolically represent some of the work we carry out every day to protect women\u2019s rights.<\/p>\n<p>We use your contribution to deliver practical initiatives based on the project priorities identified by our local staff.
