Action on Poverty operates as a venture philanthropy specialist and high-impact accelerator, pursuing scalable, measurable solutions to global poverty. Rather than focusing on short-term aid, the organization aims to develop systems of change that can be expanded and sustained. To reach its goal of affecting about one million people per year by 2030, it identifies, strengthens, and scales high-potential, locally led initiatives that have the potential to catalyze systemic change.

Headquartered in Sydney, New South Wales, the nonprofit has nearly six decades of development experience. It holds accreditation with the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, is a signatory to the ACFID Code of Conduct, and is registered with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission with DGR 1 status. In February 2025, Action on Poverty partnered with SMEC International on a project to integrate solar power systems into a community's infrastructure, illustrating its collaboration with partners to scale locally led solutions.
