Nicaragua Solidarity Campaign (NSC) works to address economic
disadvantage in Nicaragua by channelling material and moral support to partner
organisations and communities and building solidarity with these organisations
and communities.

Another major part of our work is educational: to disseminate
information and raise awareness in the UK of social and economic issues
affecting Nicaragua.
We carry this out through tours to Nicaragua >>,
speaker tours in the UK, campaigning and lobbying activities and distributing
reports and briefings.
We have two current campaigning priorities. One is our
Education for All campaign >>:
solidarity
with the
Nicaraguan people in their collective efforts to meet the UN Millennium
Development Goal of a complete primary education for all by 2015.
The other is Fair Trade and Trade Justice
>>:
linking fair trade consumers in the UK with fair trade producers in Nicaragua,
and linking activists in both countries. We also support Wales NSC, our local
groups and 13 towns and communities with twinning links in Nicaragua.
Working with trade unions is also extremely important. Since NSC became a
charity this is carried out through the
Nicaragua Solidarity Campaign Action Group (NSCAG) >>
NSC is a membership organisation with offices in London and Managua and a
network of affiliated individuals and groups in England, Scotland and Wales.
