About
How We Work
CARE tackles the underlying causes of poverty and social injustice in order to deliver lasting change in the lives of poor and vulnerable people. We believe that at its root, poverty is caused by unequal power relations that result in inequitable distribution of resources and opportunities between women and men, between power-holders and marginalised communities and between countries. Poverty cannot be overcome without addressing these underlying power imbalances.
In FY20, CARE worked in 104 countries around the world, implementing 1,349 poverty-fighting development and humanitarian aid projects and initiatives to reach 92.3 million people directly. CARE also reached 433.4 million people indirectly through its advocacy, replication of successful programs, and scale up of innovations.
2030 Vision: A world of hope, inclusion and social justice
Harnessing collective power to fight poverty, and achieve social justice
CARE contributes to lasting impact at scale in poverty eradication and social justice, in support of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). While all that we do is to support the achievement of ending poverty (SDG 1), gender equality (SDG 5) sits at the heart of our programmatic ambitions and radiates throughout our work.
