Welcome to Acted US
Acted US is committed to driving innovative humanitarian and development solutions worldwide.
We work on the first mile: Acted US’ mission is to save lives and support people in meeting their needs in hard to reach areas.
Acted US develops and implements programmes that target the most vulnerable amongst populations that have suffered from conflict, natural disaster, or socio-economic hardship.
Acted US’ approach looks beyond the immediate emergency towards opportunities for longer term livelihoods reconstruction and sustainable development.
Millions of vulnerable people around the world need humanitarian assistance today, and hundreds of millions will need it tomorrow, in the face of the growing threat of climate change. Our vision is guided by the motto “Think Local – Act Global” – reflecting the need to rely on a deep understanding of local territories and contexts to develop and implement actions based on local knowledge, structures and capacities. This local thinking contributes to a global response – running through all Acted programming and operations – as we work together towards the building of a 3ZERO world: a world with Zero Exclusion, Zero Carbon, and Zero Poverty.
Our Vision and Values
Every human being has the right to live in dignity. We choose to act for immediate change in the lives of those in urgent need. We create new possibilities and sustainable change together with people by investing in their potential.
Acted US is guided by 4 core values:
- Responsibility: we ensure the efficient and responsible delivery of humanitarian aid with the means and the resources that have been entrusted to us.
- Impact: we are committed to having the most sustainable impact for the communities and the people with whom we engage.
- Enterprising-spirit: we are enterprising and engage in our work with a spirit that creates value and overcomes challenges.
- Inspiration: we strive to inspire all those around us through our vision, values, approaches, choices, practice, actions and advocacy.
Partnerships & Collaborations
Acted US understands that the synergy of collaborative partnerships is key to amplifying our impact. We extend a warm invitation to like-minded organizations, institutions, and dedicated individuals to join our alliance. By uniting our strengths, resources, and expertise, we can pioneer innovative solutions and create lasting change. Our collaborations are founded on the principles of mutual respect, shared goals, and the relentless pursuit of a world where sustainability and peace are not ideals but realities for all.
Let’s work together to turn this vision into action, shaping resilient communities and nurturing the health of our planet.
