About us
Christian Aid Ireland is an international aid and development organisation founded by the protestant churches of Ireland and Britain. We have been standing with the world’s poorest and most marginalised communities for more than 80 years, working to create a world where everyone can live a full life, free from poverty. We campaign against the structures and inequalities that keep people poor and are proud to partner with local organisations to help people, of all faiths and none, to build their own solutions to the problems they face.
We believe that real progress can only be achieved when both the symptoms and the root causes of inequality, injustice and conflict are identified and addressed, both in Ireland and abroad. We work for policy change and transformative action to build a fairer global economy, tackle the climate crisis, support effective humanitarian aid and development, prioritise peacebuilding and defend international law and human rights. If you’re as determined as we are about these issues, come work with us to make change happen.
