ActionAid is an international charity working with women and girls to create a more just, equitable and sustainable future.

Our vision
We believe in the individual and collective power of women and girls to create a just and fair world.

It is a world imagined by social movements, particularly feminist and indigenous movements, centred around the care and wellbeing of people and the planet; and a world in which women and girls, in all their diversity, can achieve their goals, fulfil their rights and define their future.

Our approach
We aim to address the challenges faced by women, girls and their communities by sharing power with women's rights organisations and feminist movements.

We do this by fostering equal partnerships and creating spaces where these movements can succeed.

Together, with women-led organisations and feminist movements, we work to draw attention to global injustices and advocate for meaningful, transformative change.

We’re transparent and accountable
With over 40 years experience in international development, we have a long history of building effective partnerships with local organisations and running our programmes in the most responsible and financially-secure way.

We are committed to being transparent and accountable to the local communities we work with as well as to our partner organisations, local governments and, of course, to our supporters.

For ActionAid, transparency not only means being open about our financial affairs and how we spend the money we raise, but also working in a way that clearly shows how we put our values into action.

From using transparency boards to share information about our projects, to publishing financial information every year, we are committed to being transparent and open about our work.
