We seek to tackle the root causes of poverty and scale-up the impact of our projects through our advocacy work

We know that poverty is often caused by injustice – by inequality, exploitation and conflict. We seek to tackle these root causes and scale-up the impact of our projects through our advocacy work.

Our approach is to bring the local to the global. We act as facilitators, communicating the needs of the most marginalised people to policy makers, and supporting local people to do their work.

We lean on the experience and knowledge we have gained from our years of humanitarian and development work to inform our conversations with people in positions of power, whether that be local authorities, national governments, regional or global institutions or private sector companies.

Samaritan Foundation’s advocacy focuses on key priorities - Humanitarian action and emergencies, Gender-based violence, Food and nutrition security and Women’s Empowerment.
