We want to see a just, fair and sustainable world, in which everybody enjoys the right to a life of dignity, and freedom from poverty and oppression. So we work to achieve social justice and gender equality, and to eradicate poverty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our\u00a0strategy<\/a>\u00a0is to build international momentum for social, economic and environmental justice, driven by people living in poverty and exclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \ufeffPan African University(PAU) 2023-2024 Scholarship Applications: Masters and PhD Scholarships<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n In practice, this means working closely with people living in poverty and exclusion, civil society organisations, social movements and supporters. Together, we deliver grassroots programmes, provide emergency relief and campaign for things such as women\u2019s economic rights, tax justice and climate justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our work falls into four broad areas: women<\/a>, politics and economics<\/a>, land and climate<\/a>, and emergencies<\/a>. We have a particular focus on women\u2019s rights; it\u2019s a thread that runs through all our work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ActionAid was founded as a charity in 1972. In the 1990s, we adopted a human rights-based approach to development. In 2003, we established the ActionAid International federation. Our head office is in Johannesburg, South Africa. We also have hubs in Asia, the Americas and Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is our international website, where we share inspiring stories from around the federation, bold thought-leadership and practical tools that catalyse change. You can visit any of our websites<\/a> to find out more about the work of ActionAid offices around the world, and how you can get involved. We also have a Global Leadership Team, comprising some staff from ActionAid International, and a number of country directors from around the world.

The barriers include discrimination, inadequate financing and the proliferation of private, low-cost schools. The project is being implemented in Malawi, Mozambique, Nigeria and Tanzania.

They will participate in the AA ECHO Delegation led by AA European Affiliates on behalf of AAI and will support representation of AA in key partnership spaces, including contributing in relevant civil society networks in Brussels in collaboration with AA members (e.g. CONCORD). <\/p>\n\n\n\n The EU BDA will provide support to proposals under the EU funding team\u2019s INTPA portfolio and support the coordination of the portfolio. The EU BDA will play a wider business development role for the Europe & Americas regions in the provision of business development support for donors that have no affiliate owner in the region and in assessing regional capacity and trends for fundraising.
