The Adventist Development and Relief Agency working alongside communities in Eswatini since 2001.
ADRA Eswatini was established in 2001 as the local affiliate of ADRA International — one of the world's largest faith-based humanitarian organisations, operating in over 130 countries. Rooted in the values of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, we serve regardless of religion, ethnicity, or politics.
Over more than two decades, we have built trusted partnerships with government ministries, UN agencies, and global donors to deliver integrated development programmes addressing the root causes of poverty and vulnerability. Today, our team works across all four regions of Eswatini — reaching some of the country's most marginalised communities.
