Aid International's prime focus is to enable disadvantaged
people to develop their ideas, knowledge and creativity, through
increasing access to a wide range of books and information
resources beyond the curriculum, that enhance the ability
to read critically and in depth. We are particularly concerned
to target disadvantaged groups such as the rural and urban
poor; women and girls; refugees; people with special needs;
prison populations; and minority groups.
By supporting local initiatives and solutions, we work to
ensure free and equitable access to information, which we
believe is an underestimated and fundamental pillar of development.
Values
• We believe that everyone has the right to information
in an accessible form
• We value partnerships with commitment to shared goals
and shared learning
• We believe in local ownership, initiatives and solutions
• We value respect, participation, inclusion and accountability
• We believe in self development, and the transformative
power of information
• We value creativity, innovation, and openness to change
