TEAR Australia works to create opportunities for people living in poverty to change their lives and their circumstances. We are involved with development, relief and advocacy projects which focus on the poorest and most marginalised people and give priority to their rights, interests, needs and capacities. We seek to address both the symptoms and the causes of poverty through projects that produce tangible, lasting improvement in the lives of the people they serve. We hope to strengthen individuals and communities in their efforts to address their own development priorities into the future.

TEAR Australia pursues these project goals in partnership with like-minded, local implementing organisations, including specialised development agencies, churches and community groups. Our partnerships are built around shared Christian identity and values and the desire to learn from each other and improve the effectiveness and impact of the work we do together.
