The International Association for Human Values (IAHV) was founded in Geneva in 1997, to foster, on a global scale, deeper understanding of the values that unite us as a human community. Our aim is to promote an awareness of the importance of human values, encourage their development, and to initiate and support projects in the UK and throughout the world that meet the fundamental objectives of the IAHV organisation in Human Values (and which meet our criteria).

Story

Families need us! Why?

Because: they are under stress , support is minimal and kids and parents deserve a better start

AMI is an Ayurveda Programme for families - from preconception, pregnancy, birth, and especially post-partum which is practically ignored. New mothers have problems with breastfeeding, weaning, bedtime routines, exhaustion, self-worth, isolation, fertility and many other aspects which are not fully addressed by the Western medical system. Women are the bedrock of a healthy society; happy families breed healthy communities.

Local support is needed to help in so many ways for young families or families to be. Our goal is to set up and train volunteer city-support-teams to involve communities in different aspects, like meal delivery for post-partum, baby massage, mother massage, herbal remedies, and just generally being there for them as listening ears, caring eyes and helping hands from the voice of experience and training. This is a wonderful service that would allow grandmothers, retired people, and those big of heart to play an important role in the community in conjunction with trained midwives, doulas and other professional health care workers.

We need money to set up these programmes and to pay city volunteer group leaders. Your generosity, support and well wishes will add incredible value to the program and help reach out to communities which need help.
