All people have inherent value and have the right to basic health and education.
Developing people & communities
We want to see people and communities developed and create a real, lasting change. We help by bringing transformation through our different programs and projects.

Children at Risk
The Children at Risk program seeks to restore hope and provide opportunities for a future for children with disabilities. Within the program we run different projects.
One Health Program
Having good health includes not only our physical symptoms, but also the social, emotional, mental and relational aspects of life. We want to reach wholeness in each area.
Pamir Program
In one of the most inhospitable places on earth, CDI helps the ethnic Kyrgyz of the Pamirs in Afghanistan and Tajikistan with educational and health needs.
Covid-19 Relief
With the world pandemic and it’s affection in Kyrgyzstan, we had to stop most of our programs. We had to find other ways to bring relief to communities around us in Kyrgyzstan.
Our projects have made a difference in the lives of children and families around the country. Read their stories here.
