The International Institute of Rural Reconstruction (IIRR) is a community development and hands-on training organization with more than 50 years of experience. We have implemented people-centered, sustainable development programs in Africa, Asia, and Latin America, and today, maintain a strong presence in East Africa and South East Asia. Strategically located in the Global South, IIRR runs its programs from the field. While it is registered as a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization in the U.S. and has its headquarters in the Philippines, all senior decision-makers are located in the field. It is important to us that our staff hail from the region where they will work. This allows our programs to be locally-relevant, tailored, and community-driven and keeps our overhead low.
