There is one constant in fragile settings: they don’t follow a pattern.
Today, we will work to deliver life-saving aid to millions of people living on the edge of survival. Tomorrow, when the crisis subsides, we will work alongside community members to restore job opportunities, build critical infrastructure, and develop education programs. And the day after that we will be ready for the next chapter. In fragile settings, every day brings new opportunities and fresh challenges.
Relief International has the experience and agility to meet the ever-changing needs of populations in vulnerable situations. We partner with them to develop a strategy for the future and create more enduring pathways to stability.

Relief International goes where the needs are greatest
Conflict. Natural disasters. Chronic poverty.
These are some of the causes and consequences of fragility. People living in fragile settings are highly vulnerable. They face increased danger and live in areas with fewer means to cope with multiplying risks.
This is where we choose to work. Do you know which places are fragile?

Our clinics provide life-saving maternal care, treatment for children combating malnutrition, and action-oriented prevention programs for communities threatened by outbreaks of disease.
Education
We open doors to brighter futures through learning
Our education programs create safe, inclusive, and quality learning environments for all genders and backgrounds, teach vocational skills geared towards the job market, and build local capacity through teacher training.
Water, Sanitation & Hygiene
We connect communities to clean water and sanitation
