About us
We drive joint advocacy actions
The LACRMD Coalition is a strategic regional alliance comprised of international non-governmental organizations (NGOs) with a regional presence in Latin America and the Caribbean that seek to promote advocacy and humanitarian coordination actions for the promotion and protection of the rights of the most vulnerable populations affected by conflict, violence, and disasters.
We work hand in hand with local, national, and regional civil society organizations in regional and international forums, fostering genuine and meaningful dialogue with states, United Nations agencies, the international donor community, and other key actors.
