Emmaus International is a non-religious movement actively working against poverty and exclusion. It operates on the principle of solidarity, which means working for people less fortunate than yourself. It brings together 350 organisations in 37 countries in four regions of the world. Working in diverse social, economic and political contexts, they all uphold the values of sharing, humanity and justice. Their common objective is to empower people experiencing poverty and social exclusion to take back control of their lives and demonstrate that a fairer world is possible. Emmaus International coordinates its member organisations’ commitment to six areas of policy and campaigns: the right to water, health and education, ethical finance, international migration and fighting human trafficking. It also organises solidarity between member organisations by pooling human, material and financial resources.
Emmaus Europe, in its current form, was created on 21st May 2005. A not-for-profit organization, it brings together all the Emmaus structures in Europe and is one of the four continental regions of the Emmaus Movement (Africa, America, Asia and Europe). Today, close to 270 groups in 17 European countries are members of Emmaus Europe.
Emmaus Europe seeks to strengthen and preserve Emmaus’ identity in Europe with the aim of:
Emmaus Europe’s main task is to coordinate the life of the region (Article 4 of the Emmaus Europe Statutes), enabling its members to fulfill the political role that they have set themselves. By providing them with its support, knowledge and expertise, Emmaus Europe offers the European Emmaus groups the chance at local, national and regional level to defend the values advocated by the Emmaus Movement since it was founded.
