Subsidiarity guides people to establish relationships where they can make decisions, accomplish good work, and live their lives in a manner that respects human dignity
The Principle of Subsidiarity: Responsibility for addressing an economic or social problem belongs to the smallest and closest community or authority that can handle the problem. Subsidiarity defines the role of the individual in charity and personal responsibility.
CRS Haiti defines accountability as “working with communities, program participants,
partners and civil society in order to treat them with respect, dignity and mutuality, and
ensure empowerment, subsidiarity and quality in all programs.”
