WHAT MAKES CHOICE DIFFERENT

Systems thinking

The root causes of poverty are intertwined. To best understand and solve it, CHOICE uses the global multidimensional poverty index (MPI). This, along with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), help guide CHOICE's holistic and systematic work to achieve greater results in reducing poverty.    

Theory of Change

CHOICE is problem-driven and solution-focused. We assess the context of the situation, identify the resources needed, execute the work, and monitor and evaluate. To achieve maximized results, we collaborate with partners and local entities.  We strategically approach each program or project to produce powerful, lasting change. 

LOCAL LEADERSHIP

Everything CHOICE does is with and through the communities. This starts with outstanding country directors and teams. These staff members are local to the area—they know the communities we serve, and they often speak indigeneous languages like Q'eqchi' in Guatemala or Aymara in Bolivia. Our country teams ensure projects are culturally appropriate, will develop the capacity of local community members, and are sustainable well past CHOICE's involvement.
