It was established with a desire to promote, develop and improve all aspects of social and health protection of at risk groups. In order to achieve goals set in Article 8 of its Statute, PRAGMA will use community organising and mobilising methods, conduct research, education, evaluation and advocacy. Pragma’s mission is to promote, develop and improve all aspects of social and health protection of socially disadvantaged and ill persons; initiate cooperation with organisations to make them more available to citizens and to better suit their needs; to facilitate interactions of individuals within their environment; to improve the quality of life of citizens in general through empowerment, education, counselling, research and advocacy. Pragma’s vision is a society where individuals, families and communities have capacities needed for recognising, facing and solving problems, and where state, local and non-profit organisations act together to meet the needs of the citizens. Pragma is committed to goals of general interest and of humanitarian character, and based on gender equality. In its work, Pragma follows basic human rights and dignity.
