Progressio to close after 76 years

International development charity Progressio closes on 31 March 2017

Closure of Progressio

Celebrating a life, leaving a legacy: our contribution to social justice and sustainable development

Progressio, previously known as CIIR, ceased trading on 30 June 2017. It was an international development charity supporting poor and marginalised people, especially women, to empower themselves.
We listen to what poor and marginalised people say needs to change in their communities.
We work alongside local organisations to make change happen.
We share skills and knowledge with local people to ensure that our impact is felt long after we leave.
To us, success is local people empowering themselves to overcome the obstacles that keep them marginalised or in poverty.
