OUR MISSION
Our Mission
We provide life-saving infrastructure, essential supplies, and education to displaced and vulnerable communities at the border and beyond. Through engineering and creative problem-solving, we address urgent public health needs.
Solidarity Engineering began at the US–Mexico border, where we witnessed how quickly public health systems can be overwhelmed during displacement. Today, we respond wherever communities are under strain — working alongside local partners to deliver essential supplies, infrastructure, and education that support displaced families and the communities that receive them. By strengthening the systems everyone relies on, we help restore dignity, reduce harm, and build safer futures in the midst of crisis.
Our Values
Guided by the humanitarian principles and rooted in public health, our values shape everything we do—focusing on collaboration, innovation, and restoring dignity for displaced people and the communities navigating displacement alongside them.
HUMANITARIAN PRINCIPLES
We are committed to promoting equitable access to essential services, guided by the four core humanitarian principles:
-
Humanity: Alleviating human suffering wherever it is found.
-
Neutrality: Staying impartial and not taking sides in conflicts.
-
Impartiality: Providing aid based solely on need, without discrimination.
-
Independence: Acting autonomously from political or external influences.
PUBLIC HEALTH-FOCUSED
Our goal is to improve living conditions and health for people and the environments they depend on. We take a holistic approach to public health, addressing both physical and mental well-being in communities under strain from displacement and crisis.
WOMEN-
FOUNDED
Established by three women at the U.S.-Mexico border, Solidarity prioritizes addressing the unique challenges faced by women and girls — particularly in displacement settings where systems often fail them first.
COMMUNITY-
LED
We work in under-resourced and hard-to-reach places, alongside our community to identify needs and find solutions that build lasting impact.
