    Goals / Remit

    We believe that local communities find the most sustainable solutions to the challenges in their own contexts. Finn Church Aid will contribute to positive change by supporting people in the most vulnerable situations within fragile and disaster-affected areas: the right to peace, livelihood and education. We aim to become a global leader in supporting peace work in traditional communities and a strong actor within ACT Alliance’s network issues related to livelihood and education. We enhance our programmes through global advocacy.
