OIC International (OICI) is a non-profit organization headquartered in the United States. Since 1970, OICI has been improving the quality of life of low-income, disadvantaged individuals through the provision of skills training, business development, health and food security programs in the developing world. OICI's programs are comprehensive in nature, and aim to give individuals the knowledge and tools they need to build sustainable futures for themselves, their families and their communities. OICI has a team of over 300 skilled management, technical and field staff with expertise in Agriculture, Food Security, Water and Sanitation, Vocational Training & Job Creation, Microenterprise Development, Microfinance, Health and Nutrition and HIV/AIDS. To ensure maximum impact and results, OICI allocates the majority of its resources to overseas programs, thus the majority of our staff live and work in communities where they are directly implementing OICI programs. Our Mission: Our mission is to alleviate poverty by engendering self-reliance through workforce development. We believe that empowerment and self-reliance are the keys to success. Every day, hundreds of OICI staff work to build up the communities in which they live. Together with support from local governments, development organizations, private foundations, multilateral agencies and corporations, we bring life-changing programs to individuals who need them most. Our long-term commitment to these communities pays off in ways that are both measurable and immeasurable. We see it every day, every week, every month, year after year. - OIC International 45 years of leadership in workforce Development.
