CARE Philippines

Описание: Founded in 1945, CARE (Cooperative for Assistance and Relief Everywhere) is a leading global humanitarian and international development organization dedicated to defending dignity and eradicating poverty. CARE enables lasting change by strengthening the capacity of communities and households through social, political and economic opportunities, delivering relief in emergencies, influencing policy decisions, and addressing discrimination. For 75 years, CARE has led the way to a better life for the world’s most vulnerable people across 100 countries and 70 million people, each year.



In the Philippines, CARE is known for its rights-based, community-based, participatory approaches in extensive humanitarian response and development programming. Since 1949, CARE Philippines has worked to deliver life-saving aid to communities most at need and has effectively done so by investing in local partnership-building with civil society, government, and the private sector. Across our work in emergencies and community resilience, we have been intuitively gender-conscious; we have deliberately anchored our success stories around women and their experiences; and we have trialed practices and techniques to empower women economically and meaningfully engage truly vulnerable sectors.
