OUR COMMITMENT
Since 2016’s Grand Bargain, there has been a push by governments and UN agencies for local NGOs to implement more projects. Since our founding, we have focused heavily in philosophy and practice on localization – always working with local staff, organizations, and building capacity of local NGOs through our international experts to ensure our projects are the most effective and impactful as possible.
The organizations profiled here represent a sample of our local partners. Coupled with our extensive experience working with governments, UN agencies, and multilateral organizations like the EU, we’ve built a reputation as an NGO that can deliver innovative programs in locales where others cannot.
Want to know more about our localization strategy in action? Take a look at some recent articles showing the power of this collaboration and its impact on local communities.
