Abstract
CARE’s commitment to women’s empowerment is
unequivocal. CARE is a leading learning organization
committed to poverty alleviation throughout the
world. Because women are adversely impacted by
the injustice of poverty in a world where unequal
power relations are a root cause of poverty, CARE
has fashioned a long-term goal to alter the power
relations and structures that sustain poverty. CARE
therefore seeks to engender lasting reductions in
underlying causes of poverty and social injustice
experienced by specific populations groups
manifested across three domains of change:
human conditions, social positions and enabling
environments. If citizens are empowered, if power
holders are effective, accountable and responsive,
and if spaces for negotiation are expanded,
effective and inclusive, sustainable and equitable
development will be achieved.
