ECONOMIST Dr. E.F. Schumacher, author of “Small is Beautiful”, founded
Practical Action in 1966. It was established with the objective of reducing
poverty through the wider use of appropriate technologies in the
developing world. With a Head Office in the UK Practical Action works
through country and regional offices in Bangladesh, Kenya, Nepal, Peru,
Sri Lanka, Sudan and Zimbabwe.
Practical Action supports the efforts of poor people to improve their lives
through the provision of appropriate technology choices, and the associated
information, knowledge, skills and capacity required to use them. Practical
Action ensures that its innovations and initiatives are context appropriate,
and affordable and acceptable to the communities who use them. Practical
Action is committed to achieve maximum impact from its work, through
knowledge generation and dissemination, research aimed at influencing
policy and advocacy, and through scaling-up of interventions.
