Trócaire partners with communities to bring about change. We believe development is not about imposing answers. It is about working together.
Our approach is based on identifying local organisations already working on the issues and supporting them.
Our partnership model goes beyond funding. We bring experience and knowledge. We build local organisations to make them stronger.
Our approach puts local people in charge of local solutions.
We work in partnership with over 400 local organisations around the world. These organisations are embedded in their communities. They know the issues, the people and the context. They know what works and how to bring about change.
Roughly one-third of our partners are Catholic Church agencies. The rest are a mixture of faith-based and secular organisations.

Partnership means working with amazing people to change lives.
We partner with local organisations to help communities around the world. In Ireland, we partner with networks and organisations to educate and campaign.
We worked with the Irish Girl Guides to develop a climate action badge. Over 12,000 Girl Guides aged 5 to 30 took part in a series of activities related to learn about climate action. Once complete, the girls could wear their Trócaire badge with pride.
We work with environmental and development agencies to campaign for climate action. Together, through the Stop Climate Chaos network, our voices are louder.
DevelopmentEducation.ie is an educational website supported by development organisations, including Trócaire. The website's resources bring development issues alive in classrooms all over Ireland.
