VIDA

Founded in 1992 in the public interest, VIDA is a Portuguese non-profit NGO, registered with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (number 8296/98). The purpose of VIDA is to aid communities in developing their competencies and skills along with the full potential of their land, providing sustainable and fair human development. Our aim is to actively take part in the process of constructing a future where hope, access to basic care and a better quality of life become more attainable to the poorer populations of our world. Through 25 years of field experience and knowledge, our mission and commitment is to create, propose and implement projects geared towards answering to the more pressing needs of the communities and populations with which it works. It is with this ‘know-how’ that VIDA continues to build its network of partners and donors, providing solutions to these needs and creating real living conditions through local agents. Implementing an extensive methodology, VIDA’s intention is always that the interventions be sustainable in both time and space, aiding communities and attributing value to their natural resources.
