Stories from the work

What awareness looks like in schools and communities.

DPA’s stories are grounded in programme milestones, recorded reach and the people who help take awareness into classrooms. We share children’s stories only with appropriate consent and safeguarding.

Impact, volunteer, teacher & school stories

People and programme evidence belong in the same picture.

The stories below use published programme facts. Individual testimonials and named learner stories are not included without approved source material and consent.
