Nuevas Esperanzas

Nuevas Esperanzas provides practical and technical assistance to communities in Nicaragua as they seek to establish sustainable livelihoods which lift them out of poverty and encourages transformational development at all levels of society. We work at the following four strategic levels:
Local
We implement long-term development programmes in marginalised and vulnerable communities in the Department of León. Through these programmes we aim to model integrated development, addressing social, spiritual, economic and environmental needs in a holistic manner. In this work we generally act as the lead agency, maintaining regular contact with beneficiary communities and other stakeholders.
Regional
We provide technical expertise to other organisations on the Pacific side of Nicaragua to support their long-term development programmes. In this work we act as a consultancy and may also implement short-term projects in partnership with other agencies which have established long-term relationships with beneficiary communities.
National
We respond to emergency situations in any part of Nicaragua as required, providing solutions to meet water and sanitation needs.
International
We promote ecumenical cooperation in development in churches and Christian organisations, both in Nicaragua and in donor nations.
