       Action Aid International.
We focus on the people that others forget. People in poverty. People who face discrimination. People whose voices are ignored.

We help people fight for the rights that they are denied. Simple things, like the right to eat. The right to stay on their land. To an education. To have a say in the decisions that shape their lives.

We’re not about giving hand-outs or telling people what to do, because in the long run we know that doesn’t work. Instead, we use our resources, influence and experience to help people find their own solutions.

We listen to what people really want and need. We help communities take action together to hold their governments to account, and we give local organisations our support where they need it. Together, we’re making a lasting difference.

            

Food and land rights

Every day, one in eight people in the world goes to bed hungry. Yet the world produces more than enough food for everybody. 


Women's rights
Women around the world are more likely to live in poverty - just because they are women. They have less access to land, education, income and decision-making – all of which keeps them poor.

 Democratic Governance
Fair, accountable government is crucial to ending poverty and promoting human rights. Throughout the world, people's demands for democracy are growing louder as many have suffered under oppressive regimes and unaccountable leade


Education

Education – especially that of girls and women – saves lives, reduces inequality and transforms communities. 

Emergencies & Conflict
When disaster strikes, we can respond within hours, providing vital things like food and shelter. We link our response to our ongoing projects, and we stick around as long as we’re needed, providing practical support, and making sure local people have a say in rebuilding their communities and livelihoods.

Climate Change
The rich countries cause climate change, but it’s the poorer countries that are suffering the consequences. We’re supporting communities who are trying to cope with the disastrous effects of climate change. And we’re challenging world leaders to do something about it.


HIV and AIDS
AIDS causes the deaths of approximately 8,200 people every single day, the majority of them in poor countries.
