The Carter Centre United Kingdom and Foundation, a nonprofit organization and charity, support the work of The Carter Center —based in Atlanta, Ga. —founded more than two decades ago by former U.S. President and Nobel Peace laureate Jimmy Carter and his wife, former First Lady Rosalynn Carter.

The Carter Center promotes global efforts to wage peace, fight disease, and build hope
by engaging with those at the highest levels of government and by working in partnership with governments and civil society.

Working in close partnership with The Carter Center, The Carter Centre United Kingdom supports the Center's work by raising funds and increasing awareness in the United Kingdom and Europe.

The Center's programmes, implemented to date in more than 70 countries around the world, prevent and resolve conflicts, promote sustainable development and human rights, enhance freedom and democracy, and improve people's health and quality of life, including the near eradication of Guinea worm disease.

The Carter Centre United Kingdom is supported by donations from individuals, foundations, corporations, and countries.
