August 2017 – Health education at the Jigiya Bon Center
From October to June, Dr. Oumou Traoré, a Malian doctor, gives two hours’ health education a week at the Center for Girls, addressing all the issues concerning girls from puberty to adulthood: personal hygiene, dental hygiene, protection against infectious diseases (such as malaria, diarrhea, HIV infection), puberty, the menstrual cycle, fertility, sexuality, wanted and unwanted pregnancy, contraception, menstrual hygiene, female genital mutilation. The lessons are age-appropriate and the topics are discussed carefully and sensitively. Cultural, traditional and religious beliefs are also considered alongside a scientific medical approach.
In the course of these lessons, the girls also learn important skills. These include reading French out loud and confidently, group work, working out their own contributions, and researching into individual fields. The classes are attended with enthusiasm and curiosity by girls from the Center as well as external schoolgirls. Because the girls have so many questions and such need for conversation, an additional consultation hour has recently been introduced, held once a month. The girls are thus given safety in two respects: They learn to act confidently and are well informed. With their knowledge about the facts of life and their motivation, they can also act as influencers in their personal and school environment.

Mali: The protracted struggle against female genital mutilation
August 2017 – Malibelle Shea Body Butter
Treat yourself to something special and support education projects in Mali at the same time!
In the Häuser der Hoffnung e.V. online shop you can order Malibelle Shea Body Butter with different scents and also in a gift bag. The rich shea body butter by Malibelle is suitable for normal to dry skin and is quickly absorbed thanks to its delicate texture. It can be used as a body or hand cream, has a naturally soothing and smoothing effect, particularly on sensitive and irritated skin, and makes the skin feel soft and supple.
In addition to the subtle, cool “Aqua” classic, it is now also available with a refreshingly spicy “lemon grass” fragrance.
Fair trade
The shea butter used as an ingredient for Malibelle Body Butter is produced at the Häuser der Hoffnung manufactory in Siokoro. The manufactory is operated by the Jigiya Bon Siokoro cooperative founded by Häuser der Hoffnung together with three Malian associations. The sales proceeds are utilized to promote education and training projects in Mali.
In November 2012, Häuser der Hoffnung e.V. and the natural cosmetics manufacturer Börlind GmbH were jointly awarded the Innovation Award for Political Education in Developing Countries for this project by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation.
Organically produced
The shea butter from Siokoro is certified to Ecocert criteria for certified organic production. It is produced to the highest socio-ecological standards by natural cosmetics manufacturer Börlind GmbH.
