The AWCSW works on small and a wider scale to assist the poorest among us in every possible way, particularly targeting large families, families with disabled members and female headed households. While we act in response to clear emergencies and other documented need assessments, we also work to reduce chronic poverty on a more sustainable basis. AWCSW has worked extensively to alleviate poverty in Palestine through innovative solutions that ensure enhanced access to productive assets and economic opportunities and mainstreaming poverty related issues.
