Our Mission
About Me.
At Acting for Change International, we firmly believe that all people have the right to decent living conditions and opportunities, and we work to address important gaps in humanitarian and development assistance.
Empowering refugees and the host community in a holistic way
Providing children and youth with education and opportunity
Building capacity, to build resilience
Providing aid to meet basic needs
Empowering refugees and the host community in a holistic way
As a result of both the conflict and gaps in assistance, host-communities in Jordan face significant economic and social pressure. Through supporting both Syrian refugees and vulnerable Jordanians, our projects promote the social cohesion and peaceful coexistence that is vital for both successful human development and mitigating future conflict.
Providing children and youth with education and opportunity
Children, in particular, have been affected significantly by the conflict and displacement of the Syrian crisis. As a result, our priority is to invest in the training and personal development of the younger generation who have lacked access to education as a result of the crisis.
Our Vision
Our vision is a world where all individuals, regardless of their circumstances, have access to education and the resources needed to achieve their full potential. We strive to create a future where every child can go to school and learn without the worry of hunger or illness, where every family can access the basic necessities of life, and where every community can thrive through self-sufficiency and sustainable development.
By providing education, community development and aid support, we aim to empower individuals and communities to break the cycle of poverty and build a brighter future for themselves and their children.
Building capacity, to build resilience
At the core of our work is capacity building to provide the community with the ability to overcome the long-term challenges themselves in an independent and sustainable way. We do this through designing our projects on the ground, and in collaboration with beneficiaries and key members of the community. Through operating as such, we contribute in a positive and meaningful way to the long-term prosperity, peace, and security of the community and the host country.
Providing aid to meet basic needs
Development cannot happen when people struggle to meet their basic needs. We aim to provide aid when the community is affected by natural or man-made catastrophes.
