As a progressive international development and human rights organization, Grassroots International asks difficult and sometimes unpopular questions, like, "Why do so many development projects make poor people poorer?"

We create provocative education tools and training materials to raise awareness and generate critical social analysis. Overseas, our partners tell stories and use popular education techniques to educate and mobilize their constituencies. In the U.S., Grassroots’ education programming seeks to advance debate on pressing global issues, including the impacts of U.S. foreign policy and aid.

The goal of our education work is to motivate informed activism and to help U.S. citizens develop stronger ties with overseas activists through a growing global movement for resource rights.
