International Cooperation

Overview

With particular attention to globalisation and its impact on people in developing countries, SOLIDAR’s international work is rights-based - that is we believe that the best way for people to get out of the cycle of poverty and to live a decent life is through exercising their social, economic and cultural rights.

SOLIDAR's members work as development organisations, carrying out development and humanitarian projects in third countries as well as awareness-raising about development issues in their own countries.

For SOLIDAR, we need to ensure a rights-based approach to development, poverty eradication and social and economic justice by:

A global trading system and corporate accountability which ensures a strong pro-poor and pro-worker perspective

A Financing for Development process which addresses the redistribution and transfer of resources that flow from North to South

Decent Work and social protection for all
