Our work
Our long-term goals
Norwegian Church Aid connects humanitarian response, long-term development, and peacebuiling together for lasting change through comprehensive programs and initiatives. All our programs and initiatives are supported by the following goals.
Save lives
Vulnerable and displaced people are protected, access life-saving services, and practice skills that enhance their personal safety, health, and wellbeing.
Build resilience
Inclusive and cohesive communities withstand and recover from shocks and crises, manage their resources sustainably and equitably, and lift themselves out of poverty.
Seek justice
Civil society actors hold national and international decision-makers accountable and influence progressive policy, norm changes, and more equitable distribution of resources.
