Who We Are

ATD (All Together in Dignity) Fourth World is an international movement of solidarity. We work among and in collaboration with the most excluded families worldwide.

What are the definitions of poverty?

ATD Fourth World aims to make the points of view of people in extreme poverty known along with their realities.

Join us!

Our work depends on the support of members of the public who share their skills to support the fight against extreme poverty.

Poverty is Multidimensional

Poverty is not just a lack of money, it is multidimensional. Find out more about our research on the Hidden Dimensions of Poverty.
