How we work: Empowering Communities When we speak of development, we refer to the self-development of people and their communities. Development is not a project to be managed, or a problem to be solved with the knowledge and power of others. It is a process in which people act together, make political and economic choices together, and struggle for autonomy and emancipation. Equality We put equality into practice as the key component for creating a better world. solidarity.png Solidarity We work in solidarity with people from around the world, connecting in a common cause. woman.png Women's leadership We support women’s leadership because women, often marginalized, occupy a central and crucial role in societies. Participation We foster participation since people and communities need to actively participate in creating solutions to the poverty and injustice that affects their own lives.
