Our Work

We share with our supporters the desire for everyone to have a fair chance in life, an equal opportunity.

For over 75 years, CARE has been providing assistance to those in poverty regardless of race, religion or ethnicity.

CARE Australia supports women around the globe to save lives, defeat poverty and achieve social justice.

We work in partnership with local communities to provide equal opportunities for women that they have long been denied: the ability to earn an income, gain access to their fair share of resources, to lead and participate in decisions that affect their lives, and to be able to withstand the increasing impacts of climate disasters and other crises.

Disasters and Emergencies

Whether it is a sudden emergency or an ongoing crisis, we work to aid people in need wherever we are best placed to around the world.

Health

We work to provide positive health outcomes for women and girls by delivering health services, supporting access to community health services,  preparing and responding to public health emergencies.

Food and Water

We provide access to food and nutrition, water, sanitation and hygiene to those who need it most, either in sudden emergencies or for long term resilience.

Read more

Education and Livelihoods

We work to increase access to quality education for all children, particularly girls living in fragile and conflict-affected settings, and help people access the skills, knowledge and resources they need to succeed and lead their families out of poverty.

Climate

We work to support communities to adapt to the changing climate, through investing in community-based early warning systems, supporting governments to improve their disaster forecasting and climate policies, and diversifying food production and income.

Protection and Safety

We work to prevent and respond to violence against women and girls, ensure that people’s rights are respected, and they have access to what they need to live a life of dignity.​
