Published purpose

The Canadian Lutheran World Relief (CLWR) program focuses on enabling women and men in disadvantaged communities to secure their rights and achieve greater control over their lives and livelihoods. It facilitates their participation in sustainable development activities, thereby empowering them to enhance their quality of life through sustainable livelihoods and increased human security. The program has three strategic objectives: (1) to strengthen just and democratic civil society and local government; (2) to support poverty reduction by building healthy, vibrant communities; and (3) to enhance gender equity programming and practices. CLWR works in partnership with the Lutheran World Federation in India, Mozambique, and Zambia; with Polytechnical Institute Tomas Katari - IPTK, Farmers Development Program - PRODEC, and Arado Foundation in Bolivia; and with Diaconia, Urpichally, and Comuniciones Aliadas in Peru.
