Djaffar’s Story & Dream
My name is Djaffar Shalchi, and I have faith in the future of our wonderful world. My beloved wife and I started Human Act with a wish to make a difference in the lives of millions of people living in extreme poverty.
The end of extreme poverty will result in a world with less violence, greater sustainability, and fewer refugees. It will create a fairer, safer, and more balanced world for all of us.
