About Concern Worldwide (UK)
For over 50 years, Concern has been working to make its vision a reality. Today, a global team of over 3,900 highly skilled and dedicated professionals work with more than 30 million people living in the most difficult situations across 25 of the world’s poorest countries. Often these are humanitarian crises arising because of people fleeing conflict or natural disasters, increasingly related to climate change. In these settings, Concern works to rebuild lives, livelihoods and communities.
The global organisation was founded in 1968 in response to the devastating famine in war-torn Biafra. In 2004, the UK operation was formally established, with an office in Belfast and a base in London. Concern (UK) is an integral part of Concern Worldwide, operates as its subsidiary and plays a vital role by providing funding, advocacy and technical assistance, as well as by raising awareness of its work and the voices and stories of those it supports.
