OUR MISSION
Hiil-San International Rural Development Organization works in Rural regions of North Somalia particularly in Bous area to save lives, defeat poverty and achieve social justice.
Our mission is to promote education and eradicate rural poverty through equitable and sustainable development in collaboration with organizations working in the same sectors.
We work with local partners to come up with long-lasting, far-reaching solutions that enable people in poverty to provide for their families and communities in a sustainable way – because food security, safety, education and earning a decent living, are rights not privileges
Our Vision
We seek a world of hope, tolerance and social justice, where poverty has been overcome and all people live with dignity and security. A world where all people are able to realize their potential, develop their skills and participate fully in society. A world where everyone has access to safe water, education and medical care. Hiil-San believes that the best people to help communities living in poverty are community members themselves.
Our Focus
We put Rural Development in the center because we know that we cannot overcome poverty until all people have equal rights and opportunities.
Partnership: We have a people-centered approach to development and the challenge of overcoming poverty and inequality. We support our partners by allowing them to drive their own development. We recognize that we all have a stake in effective development, and we seek to build on each other’s capabilities.
