ActionAid Asia: Investing in Change

Downloads

At ActionAid, we believe that people living in poverty can lead the fight to end poverty.

We work with millions of the poorest and most excluded people - particularly women - making long-term commitments to advance their human rights and to transform the world in which their children grow up.

Our expertise lies in listening to what people really want and need.

ActionAid is a unique partnership of people working to access a quality education; to secure their land and food rights; to earn a decent living; and to have a say in decisions that affect them. We provide emergency relief to disaster-affected communities and build strength and adaptability in the face of future emergencies.

By linking our grassroots work in communities with our national and international work, we help to secure fair policies that promote positive, inclusive change, thereby maximising our impact for poor people around the world. In 2013, we reached over 15 million people worldwide.

Our vision is a world without poverty and injustice in which every person enjoys the right to a life with dignity.
