The Missionary Approach to Development

What makes the missionary approach to international development unique? It is based on long-term, deep-rooted connections with communities that help missionaries identify, reach and prioritise the furthest behind first.

Strategy

Our 2022-2026 strategy builds on the long and distinguished history of Irish missionaries and their work with excluded and vulnerable communities overseas. It is a framework to help prioritise and focus our efforts to enable missionaries to maximise their impact, as we collectively work towards a vision of a better world for the furthest behind.

Focus On

Climate Action Awards

Misean Cara members address the impact of Climate Change on the most vulnerable with projects that build resiliency through sustainable livelihoods, climate friendly farming methods, cleaner cooking fuels and forestry practices that prevent biodiversity loss. Meet the winners of our annual Climate Action Awards.

You Can Help Missionaries Transform Lives

Your gift of a donation will help to support the vital development work missionaries undertake around the world and change the lives of the most marginalised and vulnerable communities.

Focus On

Project Monitoring Visits

Each year, Misean Cara staff travel to member projects around the world to visit project teams, see their work and meet the people they serve, and conduct monitoring and evaluation of their projects.
