About the charity

The Acid Survivors Trust International (ASTI) is a UK based charity that supports organisations working in countries where there is a problem of acid violence. ASTI is committed to providing free long term treatment and rehabilitation care for survivors of acid attacks. ASTI recruits teams of volunteers who can offer medical, surgical, and other forms of professional assistance where it is needed. ASTI is the only organisation dedicated to addressing this grave abuse of human rights in an international context, encouraging and coordinating the interchange of experience and ideas of how to combat this seemingly global crime against humanity.
