Poverty is an outrage against humanity. It robs people of dignity, freedom and hope, of power over their own lives. Christian Aid has a vision - an end to poverty - and we believe that vision can become a reality.
Our strategic and policy documents show how our work will make this vision a reality, and outline our understanding of poverty and the issues we are addressing.
