03
Before you write
Make the first message useful.
You do not need a formal proposal. A few concrete details help ERAWS or the relevant service network understand the context, route the enquiry and reply constructively.
Who you are
Share your name, organisation or community role, and your relationship to the enquiry.
Where it is located
Include the country, state or province, and locality so the message can reach the closest relevant network.
What you are asking
Name the field—education, relief, welfare, volunteering or partnership—and the specific action you have in mind.
Scale and timing
Describe who is affected, what is already happening and whether there is an urgent timeframe.
How to reply
Give an email address or telephone number, your time zone and any preferred language.
04
Partnership
A conversation can become a partnership.
Community leaders
Bring local priorities, knowledge, trust and a clear understanding of the people a project should serve.
Schools and educators
Connect learning, teacher development, student wellbeing and Neohumanist educational practice.
Civil society and institutions
Contribute expertise, funding, research, logistics or pathways to wider public systems.
Volunteers and professionals
Offer time responsibly, align skills with a real need and work within local leadership and safeguarding practice.
05
Relief and urgent needs
Urgency needs the right route.
!
For an immediate local emergency
Contact the emergency services and established humanitarian responders in the affected area first. ERAWS cannot guarantee an immediate response through a general enquiry.
For humanitarian coordination, partnership or volunteering, AMURT’s operational contact route is the most direct starting point. For women- and child-focused welfare, contact AMURTEL.
06
What happens next
A good response is a process—not a promise made too soon.
Different enquiries require different expertise and local knowledge. A careful first response may begin by clarifying the situation or connecting you with another office or service organisation.
Understand the context
The team reads for purpose, location, urgency and the practical question behind the message.
Find the right network
Education, relief and welfare enquiries may be forwarded to a regional or specialist contact.
Verify what is needed
The relevant team may request context, local references or supporting information before advising.
04
Agree a responsible next step
A next step could be a call, referral, project discussion, resource link or an explanation of what is currently possible.
07
How we communicate
Contact should protect dignity from the first exchange.
Respect and clarity
Describe people and communities with care. State what is known, what is uncertain and what would genuinely help.
Privacy and safeguarding
Share only necessary information. Protect children, people at risk and anyone whose identity or location could expose them to harm.
Local knowledge and agency
The people closest to a situation are participants in the solution. Their insight and consent belong at the centre.
Begin the conversation
Start with what
