Public institutions
Your goal is to have the assurance that the money you entrust is handled with care and integrity. Our years of experience working with institutions and our leading approaches in development cooperation provide that assurance.
Three reasons
Transparent achievement.
Transparent, measurable, long-term impact and trusted quality: these are the qualities that various public institutions such as the federal government, cantons, cities and lottery funds value in us and have therefore supported our projects for many years.
-
Impact
Measurable success.
Your aim is to achieve the greatest possible impact with your contribution. This is exactly where we can help you. Our development cooperation and emergency aid projects generate measurable impact in some of the most neglected areas of the world.
-
Quality
Reliable partner.
ZEWO seal of approval, ISO certification, CHS Alliance label - they all confirm the quality of our fundraising and use of funds. As a reliable partner in development cooperation, we have received funds from the SDC via the KoGe cooperation association for many years.
-
Dependability
Trusted partner.
We are valued as a reliable partner not only in the project countries but also by foundations, companies, and institutions. We keep our word and support you in your important work.
Development cooperation
With a comprehensive view.
We evaluate our development cooperation projects in the areas of livelihoods, education, health, and peace by their lasting impact. To achieve this, we focus on long-term projects that take a comprehensive view of the local population’s living conditions. Long-standing collaboration with well-established local partner organizations, who know the people and circumstances firsthand, has proven to be key to success.
Emergency aid
Quick and straightforward.
Krisen und Katastrophen, wo wir hinsehen: Überschwemmungen, Konflikte, Kriege, Erdbeben, Dürreperioden. Wo akute Not herrscht, helfen wir rasch und unkompliziert. Gemeinsam mit unseren internationalen und lokalen Partnern unterstützen wir bereits während Notsituationen so, dass Grundlagen für eine selbstbestimmte Zukunft geschaffen und die Resilienz für künftige Krisen gestärkt wird.
Process
Effortless collaboration.
We have decades of experience not only in working with local partner organizations but also in successful and straightforward collaboration with institutions throughout the entire project duration.
-
Application
Many years of experience.
We design our proposals and project portfolios to meet your needs. This is made possible by our longstanding partnerships with various public institutions and our strong commitment to service.
-
Implementation
Sustainable cooperation.
Für die Finanzierung und die Projektportfolio-Gestaltung sind wir Teil von etablierten Kooperationsgemeinschaften. Vor Ort wiederum setzen wir – wie es modernen Ansätzen für die Entwicklungszusammenarbeit entspricht – auf langjährige lokale Partnerorganisationen, die wir aktiv begleiten.
-
Reporting
Transparent reporting.
Unsere Projektberichte zeigen, was ist. Dabei beschönigen wir die Wirkung nicht, sondern arbeiten laufend und proaktiv an der Optimierung des Projekt-Setups. Die Berichterstattung erfolgt in der Form, dem Umfang und der Regelmässigkeit, die Sie sich wünschen.
