Where We Work
Standing with communities across 40+ countries, from active conflict zones to long-term recovery.
Present Where It
Matters Most
LEAD International Development works in both new and long-running crises from sudden natural disasters to displacement situations that have lasted years. Our teams are on the ground before, during and long after the emergency response ends, because real recovery takes more than a single response.
We go where the need is greatest, including communities and crises the wider world has often stopped paying attention to. Our regional hubs coordinate programs across Africa, Asia, the Middle East, Latin America and Europe, working alongside local governments, community organizations and institutions to deliver programs that reflect real, on-the-ground realities.
Our Vision
A world where every person lives with dignity, free from poverty and injustice.
Our Mission
To empower communities through education, health, governance and humanitarian action.
