Über uns

Hagar was launched in 1994 in Cambodia with the vision of empowering women and children from devastating backgrounds of violence, abuse and trafficking, to become strong, resilient and independent members of community again. Currently Hagar International is operating in Afghanistan, Cambodia and Vietnam.

At Hagar, social programs meet social business. This approach, including recovery shelters, education, vocational training, and employment, and has enabled hundreds of women and children to reintegrate into community again.

Our Mission: Whatever it takes for as long as it takes to restore a broken life!

Hagar is an international Christian organization committed to the recovery and empowerment of women and children who are victims human rights abuse; particularly domestic violence, human trafficking and sexual exploitation.

We believe that full restoration happens when women and children are able to reintegrate into community again with resilience and dignity. Hagar's programs and enterprises give abused, rejected and exploited women and children all they need to confidently walk into the future: education; a deep sense of self-worth; financial independence; a community of people who believe in them; hope.

Hagar is in it for the long haul with each person who walks through our doors.

We are also committed to partnership and know that as we work together with the private sector, governments and NGOs both in Cambodia and internationally, that we are stronger. Hagar currently has support offices in Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Switzerland and the United States and is expanding its programs into Afghanistan and Vietnam.
