Concern works with individuals to find jobs and ways to generate income that make the most sense for them and their families — be it growing sorghum or starting a bicycle taxi service.
Understanding the value of education to the sustainable development of communities, we make sure children get the start in school they need, especially helping build a foundation in reading, writing and math and creating safe spaces for learning and play. Concern also helps teachers improve their skills, and supports parent-teacher organizations.
Every day, millions of women and children in developing countries walk several hours a day to collect water that is unsafe to drink, and sometimes deadly. Globally, it’s a dwindling resource. Concern has worked for decades to improve access to clean, safe drinking water and sanitation as part of our strategy to advance health in the world’s poorest countries.
