We support our partners in mobilising local resources (including taxes) in order for them to establish their own sustainable basis for development and for public service-delivery.
Human rights-based approach
We ensure to promote and incorporate civil, political, economic, social and environmental human rights in our interventions. We ensure to promote the equality between women and men in our interventions.
