As well as supporting individuals and organisations with their links to Lesotho, Dolen Cymru also runs two major programmes - the Lesotho Teacher Placement Programme (LTPP) and the International Learning Opportunities Programme (ILO).

The teaching programme gives six teachers from or living in Wales the opportunity to spend 6 months teaching in Lesotho from January to June. The Lesotho Literacy Leap is a project which developed from the 2013 teacher placement programme.

Phelisanong which means 'together we work for life' in Sesotho, is a community and school for disabled and vulnerable children.  Dolen Cymru has been supporting Phelisanong  and the local community with an orchard project and now a bee-keeping project.
