    ABOUT THE COMPANY

    We strive for a more just, prosperous, and inclusive world—where individuals reach their full potential, governments serve their people, and communities thrive.

    But around the globe, persistent poverty, repression, and injustice prevent too many people from achieving their full potential.

    To address these problems, we focus on people, not on vaccines, roads, or wells. We support individuals and institutions to create change in their own communities—and to create person-to-person bridges between nations.

    We are doers. Our decades of on-the-ground experience help us create greater impact, practical recommendations, and lasting partnerships.

    With an annual portfolio of $80 million and 400 staff worldwide, IREX works with partners in more than 100 countries in four areas essential to progress: cultivating leaders, empowering youth, strengthening institutions, and increasing access to quality education and information.
