ALPS Resilience builds the water, health, education and community infrastructure, and the social cohesion, that help communities affected by conflict and displacement in Mozambique, South Africa and Ukraine recover.

​

Who we are. ALPS Resilience is a non-profit group founded in 2015. We work through three national non-profits, one in each country, and each has its own board, its own accounts and staff from its own country. Each signs and spends its own grants where the work is, and responsibility for every contract sits with one named organisation.

​

What we do. We drill and rehabilitate boreholes and install solar water towers and public fountains. We build schools, health centres, community centres, markets and public spaces. In Ukraine we work on child protection and mine risk education, and in every country we support dialogue and social cohesion between communities.

​

Where we work. Mozambique is our largest programme, mostly in Cabo Delgado. We also work in South Africa and Ukraine.

​

How we work. We hire from the communities we serve and work with local suppliers and partners, so skills and value stay local. We return to the same places and stay responsible for what we build after a contract ends. In Mozambique a non-profit cannot hold a construction licence, so a separate licensed company, ALPS Constructions Lda, builds our infrastructure at cost, and any surplus goes to the non-profit.

​

Who we work with. We have delivered for UNICEF, UNOPS, IOM, OCHA, the World Bank, the UK government, Irish Aid, Australia's DFAT and others. Four phases of the Palma water programme alone have reached more than 100,000 people since 2022.
