Tearfund is a Christian international development and humanitarian organisation with more than 50 years’ experience. We work in over 50 countries worldwide, in partnership with communities, churches and local organisations.
Our approaches
Tearfund has three main ways of working:
- Advocacy and influencing
We seek to influence the global church and governments to bring about fair and just policies and structures at a local, national and global level. - Community development
We work, where possible, through the local church, empowering communities to lift themselves out of poverty. - Humanitarian response
We respond to disasters and conflicts, always seeking to reach those in greatest need.
