ANNUAL REPORT 2019 5 Preschools of the Future (POF)

Early childhood education is the starting line of children's growth and creates good preconditions for children's all-round, healthy and harmonious development. Early childhood education is an important part of the national education system and the foundation of education.

Preschool education is not part of the compulsory education in China, but thanks to the efforts and support of the governments and education departments at all levels, great progress has been made in the provision of early childhood education. The 2018 national education development statistics bulletin said the gross enrolment rate of early childhood education in China has reached 81.7%, but there are still problems such as poor foundation of early childhood education, insufficient educational resources, irregular management, and obvious urban-rural gaps.

In China, there are still 1/5 of preschool-age children who cannot receive early childhood education, and the 3 years gross enrolment rate of preschool education is generally below 50% in poverty areas. At the end of 2018, the 3-years gross enrolment rate of Yunnan Province was 79.69%, and there were still about 470,000 preschool-age children who could not receive early childhood education.

Children in some remote rural villages lack preschool access for two reasons. First, farmer families cannot afford the fees required for private preschools. Second, scattered rural housing and the preschool location in towns in the west cause long journey to preschool. Even there is funding to build or renovate preschools, there is still a lack of teachers as well as of quality teaching. Humana People to People POF projects focus on increasing both access to early childhood education and quality of early childhood education. The POF program aims - through provision a child-friendly space and the company of local teachers and other children of the same age - to help often left-behind children to safely and inspired grow up physically and mentally, narrow the gap in early childhood education between the urban and rural areas, and contribute to breaking the vicious circle of intergenerational poverty.

ANNUAL REPORT 2019 7 “Words from the heart”

Teacher of Tengchong Preschools of the Future (POF): Dong Baoyan "Squat down to talk, embrace and communicate, hold hands to educate" - this should be the true meaning of early childhood education! Whoever sprinkles the seeds of love on earth will get the harvest. An excellent preschool teacher is not only equipped with rich teaching experience, but also the love for children. A child is a complete person. To love children, one must respect their personality and treat each child from the perspective of its own development. Considering children's physical and mental development is special, the activity of teaching must respect the law of children's physical and mental development and seize the things that children are interested in and carry out various scientific games that meet children's needs, so that children can "play and learn something". Pay attention to the children's expression and creative ability and create a good preschool and class environment for children as well as a good corner allowing children to display imagination in a superior environment. A preschool teacher should be strict and full of compassionate, tears coexist with joy, and pains always accompanied by gains. We should set an example and combine teaching with pleasure and interests! "

Manager of Longling Preschools of the Future (POF) Project: Yang Chunbo "The busy work ushered in a new year, 2019 was a valuable, meaningful and fruitful year for me. In this year, I travelled to many remote villages and got a deep understanding of the urgent needs of children in remote villages for early childhood education. The inconvenient transportation and low income make it impossible for parents to send their children to preschools in other townships. Many children in rural areas cannot attend to the first grade of primary school until they are six or seven years old. But at that time, what were waiting for the children were not nursery rhymes, games or happy times in preschools, but first-grade textbooks piled together on the desks. If there is a preschool class in a remote mountainous countryside, or just a small classroom and a teacher who plays games with them, it will be the happiest thing for children. With the support and help of the project team, the Humana People to People Preschools of the Future (POF) Program has been expanded from Longling County to Tengchong City, from the original 11 preschools to 26 preschools, which means that more of our children in remote rural areas can receive 3-year early childhood education in preschools. A spacious and bright classroom and a place where children grow up healthily definitely need a good preschool teacher. Training a teacher with excellent professional knowledge in all fields is one of the important goals of our project. How to give full play to teachers' initiative and let teachers grow up faster and better is a lasting task for the development of preschool. Teachers then apply what they have learned after training, which is the greatest encouragement and support to us. I hope that more people will pay attention to and support rural children and do their best for early childhood education in remote rural areas."

Principal of Yansi Primary School, Tengchong Preschools of the Future (POF) Project Yang Xinyu "Preschools of the Future (POF) make unprecedented changes to our preschools in poor mountainous areas. The project attaches importance to the improvement of teachers' comprehensive quality. Our school used to be very weak in early childhood education. Since September 2018, thanks to the support of Humana People to People, our hardware facilities and comprehensive quality of teachers have been improved. Growing in such an environment, children's morality, intelligence, physique and aesthetics have been developed in an all-round way."

De'an Township Central Primary School in Ning'er County Principal Liu Shulin

"Early childhood education in De'an Township Central School has received strong support and help from Humana People to People, which provided all-round guidance and training in the layout, beautification of classroom, the construction of campus wall culture, the construction of children's activity places and nutrition canteens, the customization of nutrition recipes, and the improvement of preschool teachers' educational skills. They have even gone to school to make toys with their own hands and provide a large number of children's learning tools and living tools, greatly improving the level of preschool education in our school and providing high-quality learning conditions for rural children".

ANNUAL REPORT 2019 9 At the end of 2018, 16.6 million rural people in China still lived below the poverty line – a number bigger than the population size of 127 countries in the world. In 2019, China lifted 11.09 million rural people out of poverty (with an annual per capita income of 3,747 Yuan or 540 US dollars). However, by the end of the year, 5.51 million rural people were still living below the poverty line. (Data from the official website of National Bureau of Statistics)

Chairman Xi Jinping often emphasizes the importance of poverty alleviation, and to build a well-off society under continuous efforts of the Communist Party of China.

National policy of "Precise poverty alleviation" is seeking truth from facts, adjusting measures to local conditions, categorize guidance, and make poverty alleviation ‘targeted’ and precise.

Therefore, 100,000’s of government employees were appointed to serve as resident "first secretary" across the country, and helped local people to get rid of poverty through income generation projects, rural tourism, prioritizing poverty alleviation, moving and relocation of whole villages, educational support and health support.

News channels, newspapers and magazines regularly report on poverty alleviation work, achievements and challenges.

2019 was the last year before the crucial planned victory for poverty alleviation in 2020. In addition to the government's all-out efforts, other social resources are also actively participating, and Humana People to People is also participating in this national "poverty alleviation struggle".

Our common dream is to lift the 5.51 million people still living below the poverty line out of poverty and reach the level of a well-off society.

In HPP Community Development Projects the main theme is to develop the ability of the farmers and their families: it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish!

ANNUAL REPORT 2019 15 Total Control of the Epidemic (TCE) Project

Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture is recognized as a high incidence area of HIV/AIDS in China. It is located between the Sichuan Basin and the Yunnan- Guizhou Plateau, covering an area of more than 60,000 square kilometres, which are the largest concentrated area of Yi ethnic groups in China and the area with the most categories of minorities and the most population of minorities in Sichuan Province. There is still a lack of awareness about HIV/AIDS caused by taking drugs and unprotected casual sex, so it is very necessary to carry out mass health education.

Under the leadership of the National Health Commission and the Provincial Health and Family Planning Commission, the AIDS prevention work in Liangshan Prefecture has achieved periodic results and the health cause has made great progress. However, due to poor foundation and weak foundation, the contradiction between the supply of public health services in the whole prefecture and the growing health needs of the people is still very intense. The task of AIDS prevention and control is still very arduous.

TCE, Total Control of the Epidemic, is a campaign launched by the Federation for Associations connected to the International Humana People to People Movement (FAIHPP) to mobilize the grass-roots to fight against HIV/AIDS - to prevent HIV/AIDS by integrating individuals, families and communities. The concept of TCE is centred on the idea that "Only the people can liberate themselves from AIDS the epidemic."

Since 2007, Humana People to People has successively introduced the TCE project model to Yunnan and Sichuan provinces, and implemented prevention and control projects for infectious diseases such as AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria. Through community health workers, the project used door-to-door and face-to-face methods to carry out health education and publicity activities. Among them, the Total Malaria Control project covered 2.5 million villagers and the TCE AIDS projects covered 1 million people. The solid experience of village-level AIDS prevention and control projects of Humana People to People has promoted the implementation of the "1 + M + N model" policy for AIDS prevention and control in Liangshan Prefecture, Sichuan Province. Humana People to People independently implemented the TCE project in Liangshan Prefecture until 2017; from 2018 on, Humana People to People began to train, manage and supervise TCE officers recruited by the government.
