“We are committed to advancing locally led solutions that protect our planet, expand economic opportunity and ensure communities have the tools and resources to lead their own development. Joining the Global Alliance will help us do that on a larger scale,” said Sean Callahan, CRS president and CEO.

CRS joins that Global Alliance under its Knowledge Pillar and will prioritize four cross-cutting commitments central to CRS’ 2030 Agency Strategy – In Their Own Hands. Through its commitment to subsidiarity – the idea that local problems are best solved by those living and working in the community – local partners and institutions are supported to manage resources, deliver quality programs and influence policy.
