One way to strengthen society is by offering individuals tools through which they can strengthen themselves. Our researched and evidence-based self-development programs help individuals connect with one’s self so that they can better connect with others.
When individuals manage their own minds, they connect better with themselves, improve their relationships with others and take leadership actions. At the core of the practical tools and frameworks we have developed, is a focus on strengthening individuals who, in turn, are inspired to contribute positively to societal development, taking responsibility to serve the needs of their communities.
To tackle some of the world’s critical problems including, poverty, inequality, food and water security, we apply an integrated development approach serving the needs of underdeveloped rural communities.
When individual empowerment is complemented with education focused on supporting human values of love, compassion, friendliness, cooperation and peace, the result is care for people, planet and a spark of inspiration to do good in the world.
To meet the global challenges of climate change, IAHV offers inclusive and sustainable development interventions including disaster relief, river rejuvenation and providing access to renewable energy.
Stakeholders including international organizations, governments, donors and civil society organizations have supported and partnered with the development models of IAHV.
