About Business Network
We go above and beyond: The goal of ACTED is to address people’s needs in remote and difficult-to-reach locations while also saving lives. Programmes that target the most vulnerable members of communities affected by natural disasters, armed conflict, or socioeconomic distress are created and implemented by ACTED. The strategy employed by ACTED looks beyond the current crisis to possibilities for long-term livelihood rebuilding and sustainable development.
Our mandate
Operating under the principles of non-discrimination and openness, ACTED is a private, non-profit organisation that is independent and upholds strict political and religious impartiality. Its fundamental values are inspiration, influence, responsibility, and an enterprising attitude.
In addition to co-creating longer-term prospects for sustainable growth and realising people’s potential, ACTED is dedicated to providing emergency humanitarian relief to support those in immediate need and preserve people’s dignity.
By investing in people and their potential, ACTED aims to assist the global development of civil society, co-construct effective government, foster inclusive and sustainable growth, and respond to humanitarian emergencies and build resilience.
