Our Mission

SAHARO works without regard to creed, race, gender, or ethnicity, and is one of the reputed humanitarian networks.
SAHARO provides a beacon of hope for thousands of women, men and children in times of hardship and contributes to the development of social justice in times of peace. Saharo’ mandate includes integral development, emergency relief, advocacy, peace building, respect for human rights and support for proper stewardship of the planet’s environment and resources.
The SAHARO approach is based on the social teaching, which focuses on the dignity of the human person. Saharo’ work on behalf of the poor manifests God’s love for all of creation.
SAHARO believes that the weak and oppressed are not objects of pity, but agents of change leading the struggle to eradicate dehumanizing poverty, unacceptable living and working conditions, and unjust social, political, economic and cultural structures.
What makes SAHARO unique is its ongoing presence in communities, before, during and after crisis situations. Important, too, is that being part of civil society and incorporating the perspective of the poor, Saharo can continuously adapt its strategies to an ever changing environment.
SAHARO fights poverty, exclusion, intolerance and discrimination. More importantly, it empowers people to participate fully in all matters affecting their lives, and it advocates on their behalf at national and international forums.
SAHARO promotes partnership: local autonomy is paramount in ensuring effective teamwork for the good of all. By pooling expertise and resources, SAHARO is able to identify issues at the grassroots, analyze them at national and international levels, and then take action locally, regionally and globally.
