Executive statementThe document you hold in your hands highlights what ADRA Australia hasbeen able to accomplish in partnership with our supporters, implementingpartners, AusAID and ACFID during the 2009-10 financial year. By theirvery nature, highlights fail to tell the full story behind such successes. Wewould like to acknowledge the passion and talent of the ADRA Australiastaff that, along with many hours of hard work, have laid the foundationfor these stories of success.

While the Global Financial Crisis may have officially passed, manyagencies have felt the effects most dramatically during 2009-10. We wouldlike to acknowledge the efforts of our Public and Supporter Relationsteam and the generosity of our supporters, which have enabled us to seea small increase in donor funds in a year when the industry trend wasdownward. This has enabled us to continue to provide financial security toour implementing partners during a time of financial uncertainty.

During the past year we have entered into negotiations to transition Op-shops and major projects within Australia from Church Conferences(administrative regions often determined by state borders) to ADRAAustralia. This will strengthen the relationship between ADRA Australiaand the grass-roots groups that get these projects up and running. Themove will also allow ADRA to be more responsive to local communityissues and at the same time drive a National strategy for our members(the Seventh-day Adventist Church) to engage with those most in need intheir communities.

It is important while reflecting on the National Program to thank thehundreds of volunteers who staff the shops, refuges, centres, carry outfundraising campaigns and numerous other activities to support the workof ADRA Australia. Your contribution in aiding ADRA to empower thoseliving in poverty and distress is immense and greatly appreciated.

Last year, we reported on the establishment of a new internationalprograms review process. This has resulted in not only improved programs(see our international region reports) but also provided an opportunity fordeveloping the capacity of our implementing country partners. ADRA,through its International Programs department is keen to not only be a

funding source, but a true partner, developing the capacity of ourimplementing country offices and assisting them towards stability andsustainability. We are proud to support 37 international projects in 14 ofthe world’s poorest developing countries.

Our Emergency Management team has begun a strategic planning processin conjunction with our partnering ADRA offices to build the emergencyresponse capacity within the Pacific. We were also able to respond quicklyand effectively to the Haiti earthquake thanks to the support of ourdonors. ADRA Australia responded by assisting in the provision ofsanitation and establishment of clinics and temporary classrooms to thecamps set up for displaced people. We are currently working with ADRAInternational to develop projects that will further assist in the rebuildingphase of Haiti’s recovery.

Finally, we must thank our Board of Directors who offer us such wisecounsel, constantly remind us of our mission and hold us accountable tobest practice.

With natural disasters increasing in frequency and world hunger on therise ADRA Australia will continue to bring hope and justice to the world’spoor. We invite you to join with us as we deliver our ministry ofcompassion into the future.

The islands of the South Pacific are some of themost idyllic locales on earth. But step beyondthe postcard perfect images and you’ll witnesssignificant poverty and injustice. In 2009-10,ADRA Australia implemented thirteen projectsthroughout the South Pacific. In communitiesacross Fiji, Papua New Guinea, the SolomonIslands and Vanuatu ADRA has providedcommunity assistance in the areas of health,education, water/sanitation and civil societystrengthening.

The South West Vanua Lava WaterDevelopment project in Vanuatu has been

bringing clean water and improved health torural communities since January 2010. Theinstallation of 13.5 kilometres of pipe and

more than 50 water stands has allowed 600members of the Mosina and Wosaka

communities to access clean water. Combinedwith a range of education programs this

project has also allowed these communities toimprove their management of water resources

and health. Members of Wosaka village havebeen so dramatically impacted they have

already built another tank to supplement thenew water supply.
