Hundreds of thousands of people in Europe take action, donate money and sponsor children to support our projects around the world.
Together, we run campaigns, make a noise in the media and demand action from the EU and national governments to end poverty. We also work in schools and with young people to improve understanding of global issues.
Our European Union office in Brussels aims to put the fight against poverty and injustice at the heart of the EU's policies on food rights (including biofuels), women’s rights and development finance.
