Organisation Summary

CARE Australia is a leading international aid organisation that works around the globe to support woman, save lives and defeat poverty. As a global leader within a worldwide movement dedicated to eradicating poverty, CARE is known for its unshakeable commitment to the dignity of all people. CARE seeks for a world of hope, inclusion, and social justice, where poverty has been overcome and all people live with dignity and security. We put women and girls at the centre, because we know we cannot overcome poverty until all people have equal access to resources, rights and opportunities.

CARE Australia is one member of the global CARE Confederation. We work in partnership with local communities to provide equal opportunities for women and girls to be educated and to earn an income, gain access to essential resources like food, health care & clean water, and to be able to withstand and recover from the increasing impacts of disasters, conflict and other crises. Our programs focus on women & girls because we know when one woman breaks the cycle of poverty she brings four others with her – and that’s a powerful multiplier of impact.
