Every project of Intercooperation in Bangladesh puts emphasis on improving livelihoods and decreasing poverty. Intercooperation addresses poor, vulnerable households and search for ways to ensure that the extreme poor (women headed households, landless, indigenous communities and char dwellers) benefit from development initiatives. Intercooperation aims to make improvements in all aspects of the clients' lives, through promoting the skills of individuals, peoples' organisations and the potential of the market.

One of Intercooperation's main concerns is to ensure the sustainability of its interventions. For this reason, Intercooperation promotes local leadership and stakeholder ownership of interventions, while facilitating these processes. Intercooperation brokers collaboration between institutions. Processes of self-reliance and local dynamics of development are promoted at the community level. Intercooperation encourages service organisations to be responsive to the needs of the poor and extreme poor.
