AGORA

AGORA is a joint venture between Acted and IMPACT Initiatives created in 2016 to operationalise our motto “Think local, act global.

It is an area-based approach anchored in local territories and knowledge to better support people in fragile contexts by strengthening territorial resilience, recovery, and governance.   

It puts local people and actors at the center by using territories as the basis for the planning and delivery of assistance and ensuring that action is guided by local knowledge and supports local structures and capacities. 

To deliver on these objectives, the AGORA methodology is built around the following enablers: 

WHAT PROGRAMMES CAN AGORA ENABLE?
