In 2023, Misean Cara and its members played a crucial role in delivering life-transforming projects to vulnerable people around across the global south, allocating €13.6 million in funding to support 321 projects in 52 countries targeting 1.9 million people.
Implemented by 52 Misean Cara member organisations, these projects delivered critical, often long-term impact to communities across Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East by upholding rights to climate-resilient livelihoods, access to better healthcare and quality education, mobilising excluded people in the promotion of their human rights, and by providing emergency assistance in times of crisis.
At the launch of the Annual Report at Misean Cara’s 2023 AGM in June, Misean Cara CEO, John Moffett, commented “One of the highlights in 2023 for me personally was the quick response of members to the sudden earthquake in Turkey and Syria in the early part of the year and the solidarity demonstrated to provide funding support to those members on the ground in Syria who were able to act as first responders and support the survivors of a truly devastating disaster.”
