Mission
Our vision is a world with no poverty, and our mission is to eradicate poverty and support people to a better future out of poverty.
We define poverty as non - satisfaction of basic needs, human isolation, powerlessness, and vulnerability.
Together with partners sharing this vision, we will facilitate peoples’ efforts to cross the poverty line.
People, living in poverty lack opportunities and self-esteem. We will facilitate change, not only provide material needs, but also creating opportunities for utilising peoples’ talents for value based development. Our approach is a participatory process of change for peoples’ empowerment. |
