Who we are

Who we are

We are an international humanitarian organisation that strives for a world free from poverty, fear and oppression.

Extreme geographies. Extreme climate challenges. Extreme crises. Nothing will stop Concern fighting extreme poverty. Our teams on the ground are working together with people living in the most difficult situations, to bring about lasting change to lives, livelihoods and communities.

We provide life-saving and life-changing support to communities around the world who are most vulnerable to crises. From rapid emergency response to our innovative programming in health and nutrition, livelihoods and education, we go to the hardest to reach places to make sure that no-one is left behind.
