Bolzano, 26 October 2026 – As every year, the association World Doctors has published a calendar for 2027. The proceeds go entirely to the “Loving Home” project in Ethiopia, which gives young people the chance to build a future in their home country.

Raising awareness of the dangers of illegal migration

The project is carried out in cooperation with the three dioceses of Emdibir, Soddo and Hosanna. One key focus is raising awareness among young people: they are informed about the consequences and dangers of illegal migration and that their dreams and expectations do not correspond to the reality.

Start-up funds for a future of their own

A second focus is practical support on the ground. Young people receive start-up funds that allow them to set up a small business in their home country. This creates opportunities in their own home that make a life of dignity possible. In the calendar, young people tell about the small business they have started thanks to this support.

Calendar available for a donation

The calendar is available in all World Shops in South Tyrol in exchange for a donation. Members of the association also help with the distribution.

Thanks to Südtiroler Sparkasse

Special thanks go to Südtiroler Sparkasse, which covered the production costs of the calendar. As a result, 100% of the donation goes directly to the project.
