About us
Founded in 1972, ActionAid has been fighting poverty worldwide for over 30 years. In 2013, ActionAid's work reached 15 million people in Africa, Asia and Latin America. At ActionAid we take advantage of over 30 years of knowledge and experience in fighting poverty. We don't impose solutions, but work with communities over many years to strengthen their own efforts to throw off poverty. With more than 2,000 partners worldwide, we work with and support the poorest and most vulnerable people to secure their rights to food, shelter, work, basic healthcare and a voice in the decisions that affect their lives. Italia ActionAid è un’organizzazione internazionale indipendente impegnata nella lotta alle cause della povertà e dell’esclusione sociale. Da oltre 30 anni siamo a fianco delle comunità del Sud del mondo per garantire loro migliori condizioni di vita e il rispetto dei diritti fondamentali. In Italia AAI è presente dal 1989: è una ONLUS (Organizzazione Non Lucrativa di Utilità Sociale) riconosciuta come ente morale ed è accreditata presso il Ministero degli Affari Esteri come ONG (Organizzazione Non Governativa).

Ahead of the #COP29 Heads of Delegation retreat, we are sending an urgent reminder that vulnerable communities are still bearing the brunt of the climate crisis. We URGENTLY need the Global North to answer for decades of inaction that have escalated climate disasters, more especially in the most vulnerable regions. They need to #PayUp $5 trillion/year now💸 As climate disasters intensify, so should the call for justice!✊

❗ ActionAid International Uganda condemns the brutal and unlawful arrest of peaceful and largely youthful anti-corruption demonstrators ❗ "The Constitution guarantees the right to peaceful protests and freedom of expression and Article 23 provides for the right to access a lawyer upon arrest. These rights must be protected and honoured, not only for those arrested but for all Ugandans." https://lnkd.in/deTusbeJ

Let's abolish the colonial IMF on its 80th birthday!🎈 Mass protests in countries like Kenya, Nigeria, Pakistan, Ghana & Sri Lanka have amplified why there is an urgent need to STOP the IMF from exploiting countries in debt crisis. “By following the IMF’s prescriptions, often at significant cost to national development goals, one would at least expect countries to have stabilised and avoided debt crisis. But 54 countries are now in a debt crisis and many are spending more on servicing their debt than on financing education or health.” ActionAid’s Secretary General, Arthur Larok shares more insight in this blog. https://lnkd.in/dEy7dASU
