Social care is a livelihood. A livelihood
comprises people and the facilities for all the amount of
help that aims to sustain the people’s lives, to enhance
life expectancy rate. In all Africa and the south-east Asia
the changing life expectancy rate is posing a great difficulty
for statistics.
Our Funders and Supporters
will have a more realistic understanding of the extent of
combination of traditional ‘care’ cultures with
modern social care practice.
It is in your
power to point the way to a more sustainable life!

Defining the Mission of Palliative
Care:
Our commitment is providing as much help as possible to
operators in Africa and south-east Asia. Such help and support
to them to continue to formulate and implement development
strategies of palliative care, in the light of and suited
to their conditions - strategies that can activate all possible
factors and achieve the most satisfactory outcomes. The
objective being to increase their capability to self-reliance,
and promote collaborative multi-disciplinary approach to
this area of care practices.
The extended family system, in Africa, was meant for support
of every member of the extended family. The demise of the
extended family system required unrelenting development
of family-care support systems. Palliative care will be
supported in hospices or home care because it is one of
such care systems that support the family. The complete
and self-satisfying care system lessening the person’s
fears, is not only person-orientated, but considers the
family in the event of death. Such care that includes physical,
mental, palliative, psychosocial and spiritual activities
should be supported.
It is true that conditions varied from country to country
in the developing world, for the level of seriousness to
enhance quality of life, and development strategies suited
to one country may not necessarily be suitable for another.
SCW is working to harmonize the different
levels of social and palliative care practices in Africa
and south-east Asia.
