War On Want

Unverified non-profit organisation

War on Want fights poverty in developing countries in partnership with the poor. They campaign for workers’ rights and against the root causes of global poverty, inequality and injustice.

War on Want’s approach to fighting poverty is rooted in solidarity. Their view is that organisations on the ground – trade unions, farming cooperatives, social movements – are best placed to empower communities living in poverty. With partners in Africa, Asia and Latin America, our overseas work focuses on challenging the structures that keep people poor.1961
