Working with ActionAid

At ActionAid, we build long-term partnerships, developing mutually beneficial relationships that engage our partners and provide tangible results for the world’s poorest and most vulnerable people.

We work with our partners to involve them as deeply as they wish in the projects they support. Briefings from country staff, impact reports, and the chance to visit projects on the ground mean you really get to see the difference you make.

ActionAid works in 45 countries across Africa, Asia and Latin America.

 

  • We fight the causes of poverty, not just the results
  • We don't give handouts or tell people what to do, because in the long run we know that doesn’t work
  • We don't impose solutions. We work with and listen to communities, arming them with the tools to take responsibility for their own development

Transforming lives

Leya Chede from Katiriyo, Uganda, and her family of nine previously went hungry, but an ActionAid-supported agricultural programme has enabled her to grow surplus maize and groundnuts, buy and rear goats. She now teaches others to do the same.

“When I planted the groundnuts in the first season I harvested 7 bags of groundnuts and 27 bags of maize grains. This was to change my life forever.”
