Haiti is the first partner country where Cunina started their projects, under the guidance of Jan Hoet, in 1989. In the past, Cunina also realized medical projects, but now we consciously choose to only focus on education.
Realized projects
Cunina wants to leave a lasting impression in the places where they are active. The goal of our projects is to help the local community become independent and self-reliant. As a partner, you are not just a sponsor but also the driving force behind the realization of the project.
