We apply solutions specific to the needs of each community, such as providing access to capital for small businesses or helping farmers adapt to changing climate conditions. Our long history of partnership with local communities, businesses, and governments enables in-country professionals to lift up local knowledge and leverage relationships that drive results. And by working across issues such as gender, climate change adaptation, and agriculture, Lutheran World Relief continues to learn, share, and innovate with the global development community.By investing in people, their skills, and strengthening their ability to adapt, Lutheran World Relief is helping regions find lasting solutions.
