Gorta Projects
Gorta has supported over 1,500 projects since founding in 1965.
All projects are concentrated in the most needy areas and are
aimed at benefiting the poorest of the poor with emphasis
on food security, empowerment of women and improving the health
of children to ensure growth and development.
To give you an idea of the work in which Gorta is involved,
we have placed a number of our current projects on this web-site.
Why not take a few minutes to browse through these projects
and read some of the ways in which your help makes life better
for people in the developing world.
These are some of the projects which we are in the process of funding at the
moment.

Why Projects
There are many methods of structuring development initiatives.
However, Gorta's long experience has found that the project system
works best. We identify a single task or group of tasks which
can be managed together. The outcomes and benefits are clearly
identified and the cost and risk associated is quantified. We
can then allocate out donors funds most effectively, and
determine whether the project objectives were achieved.
There is extensive involvement of the local community and
our local partner, to design, implement, own and manage their
own projects.
