What we do
UTPMP uses a three-stage method to achieve long-
term, sustainable change in the social structure. At the
core of our approach is a focus on empowering the
poorest sector of the society, insuring that beneficiaries
become the main protagonists of the process. To do
this, we rely on the involvement of thousands of
volunteers who work hand-in-hand with families living
in slums, fighting for the common goal of eradicating
extreme poverty.
