Autorenporträt

ActionAid Association (AAA) is an organisation working for social and ecological justice. AAA has been engaged with the most marginalised communities in India since 1972. In 2006, it was registered as an Indian organisation, governed by an independent General Assembly and a Governing Board. Together with supporters, communities, institutions, and governments, it strives for equality, fraternity, and liberty for all.

ActionAid Association has been at the forefront of responding to the emergency needs of forcibly displaced communities for over four decades. AAA prioritises the needs of women and children and builds resilience of marginalised populations. AAA has supported displaced minorities from Pakistan living in Rajasthan, and internally displaced persons from Chhattisgarh settled in Andhra Pradesh. In partnership with the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, AAA extends support to people from the Rohingya community settled in parts of Uttar Pradesh and Haryana. AAA advocates for the universal rights of refugees, regardless of gender, class, caste, ethnicity, religion, and country of origin. AAA feels it is the collective responsibility of the international community to respond and ensure the rights of refugees.
