A few words about
What We Do
Our projects
OFIPAFD projects are the on-the-ground work that makes the 7 program areas real for immigrants and host communities. They’re designed to be practical, community-led, and tied directly to protection, peace, and sustainable development.
OFIPAFD turns advocacy into action. Our projects deliver real programs in deprived communities, immigrants communities, host neighborhoods, and underserved populations across world. Each project is rooted in our core areas: Peace Building, Environment & Climate Action, Sustainable Development & Energy, Industrialization & Economic Opportunity, Culture Promotion, and Disability Empowerment
Peace Building & Crime/Fraud Prevention
Peace and safety are the foundation for everything else — jobs, housing, climate work. If a community is at war with itself or being drained by fraud, development stalls. This program keeps the ground stable so the rest of OFIPAFD’s work can actually work.
Environmental Protection & Climate Action
Environmental Protection & Climate Action is how OFIPAFD links immigrant well-being to the health of the land and climate. Climate change, land degradation, and pollution don’t hit everyone equally — immigrants, rural communities, and low-income areas feel it first. This program protects both people and the environment.
Immigrant Protection & Anti-Human Trafficking
We defend the rights and dignity of immigrants so they can live and work safely. Immigrant Protection & Anti-Human Trafficking is at the heart of OFIPAFD’s work. Immigrants are especially vulnerable to exploitation, abuse, and trafficking because of language barriers, uncertain legal status, and lack of support networks. This program makes sure they’re not left unprotected. We actively work to prevent trafficking and support survivors.
Sustainable Development & Energy Sustainability
Sustainable Development & Energy Sustainability is how OIPFD makes sure growth today doesn’t cost communities tomorrow. For immigrants and underserved populations, unsustainable development means higher costs, poor housing, and vulnerability to climate shocks. We can’t have lasting peace or economic opportunity without reliable energy and sustainable systems. If energy is dirty and expensive, or development depletes water and soil, communities stay trapped in cycles of poverty and crisis. Sustainable development + energy sustainability breaks that cycle.
