ADA's support for vulnerable populations

Founded in 1994, ADA (short for Appui au développement autonome, support for autonomous development) is a Luxembourgish, non-governmental organisation that strives to sustainably improve the living conditions of vulnerable populations and build stronger, more resilient local economies in the Global South in collaboration with local partners.

Remaining true to its role as a pioneer in impact finance, ADA unveiled its new strategy on 20 April 2026 at an event on ‘Impact Finance for Vulnerable Populations’.

ADA (Appui au développement autonome) is a Luxembourgish, non-governmental organisation that has been increasing the autonomy of vulnerable people in Africa, Latin America and Asia with inclusive finance since 1994, thereby contributing to achieving the sustainable development goals.
