Practical Action is an international development organisation that puts ingenious ideas to work so people in poverty can change their world. We help people find solutions to some of the world’s toughest problems. Challenges made worse by catastrophic climate change and persistent gender inequality. We work with people to develop lasting solutions to the problems they face every day. And we share what works with others, so answers that start small can grow big. We believe in the power of small to change the big picture. And that together we can take practical action to build futures free from poverty.
