IIRR
IIRR is one of the world's leading rural-focused NGOs. Since 1960, our mission has been to help empower rural communities so that they can take charge of their own success. Our programs across health, education, environment, food systems and economic empowerment have been delivered in over 50 countries, directly impacting the lives of more than 44 million people. Africa and Asia are home to nearly 90% of the world's rural population, currently estimated at approx. 3.4 billion people globally. That is 45% of people on Earth. In much the same way that IIRR was called upon by UNICEF and the British Government to assist in the Ebola epidemic, we are working with existing and new partners to reach marginalized communities already being affected by the pandemic. This is far from a hopeless issue. With our commitment to innovation, we work with our partners to ensure those impact investments made in our food security, regenerative agriculture, health systems, and other programs generate a robust social return. Will you join our fight to end extreme rural poverty?
