Created in 1993, ACTED is an international non-governmental organization pursuing a dual mandate of emergency response and development interventions in 40 of some of the world’s most vulnerable countries affected by conflicts, disasters or socio-economic hardship. With a team of 7,000 national staff and 400 international staff, ACTED implements 500 projects a year to support more than 20 million beneficiaries, notably in hard-to-reach areas.
ACTED goes to the last mile through programs and approaches that look beyond the immediate emergency towards opportunities for longer term livelihood reconstruction and sustainable development. Guided by the motto “Think Local, Act Global” and its 3Zero –Zero Exclusion, Zero Carbon, and Zero Poverty – strategy, ACTED puts local territories at the centre and provides a tailored support to local needs.

ACTED has been active in the fields of food security, livelihood, economic development, conflict mitigation, local governance, strengthening civil society organizations through capacity building, shelter and infrastructure, microfinance, health education, reproductive health care, water and sanitation, etc. ACTED is focusing on the needs of marginalized groups, in particular rural women, as well as committed to continue the work underway in the field of civil society development.
