Building Hope and Teams

Every trip is different. Our team will work directly with you to develop a trip which fits your strategic objectives while delivering our programme goals. Habitat Ireland supports long-term international partnerships in Cambodia, Romania, Malawi, Poland, Jordan, India, Ethiopia and Zambia. It is currently possible to travel within our region – to Romania, Poland and Jordan.

Habitat is led by local people, who are housing experts in 70 countries, understanding the need and developing innovative ways to respond. Internationally, Habitat:

  • • Supports communities through water and sanitation projects
  • • Helps disaster affected communities to move from ruin to recovery and works to reduce vulnerabilities and build community resilience
  • • Delivers programmes for the most vulnerable (eg; leprosy affected families, HIV/Aids, orphans and widows)
  • • Provides loans for repairs and home improvements
  • • Helps people to access secure land tenure
  • • Delivers construction training and education programmes
  • • Advocates to change housing policies and systems which keep people locked in poverty.
