Helvetas Germany

Helvetas Intercooperation gGmbH (Helvetas Germany) works in Asia, Easter Europe and Latin America and contributes to poverty reduction in rural areas through targeted development projects. Our politically and denominationally neutral NGO lays particular emphasis on helping people to help themselves, promoting women and girls in particular, and encouraging sustainable natural resource management. Our core activities are improving access to clean water, food security, education and income generation. Our vision is a just world in which all men and women determine the course of their lives in dignity and security, using environmental resources in a sustainable manner. This vision is the basis for the organisation’s mission to help disadvantaged men, women and communities in developing countries.
