AFAP was one of the first organisations in Timor Leste providing emergency relief following the destruction campaign after the UN-sponsored consultation in which Timor Leste chose to become independent in 1999. Today, as life in Timor Leste begins to regain some stability after years of turmoil, AFAP is focusing its work on long-term capacity building to enable the people of Timor Leste to gain control of their futures.
As part of the long-term capacity building, AFAP is working with Timor Aid while focusing on numerous areas of development. These include training workshops and capacity building, health clinics and programs, such as the Bairo Pite Clinic, educational initiatives and maintenance of the national identity through weaving and language initiatives.
