co-fundable projects
While funding for our core work comes mainly from the Dutch government and Dutch general public, often we see opportunities to leverage our and our partners’ expertise in new ways to create additional impact.
We call these our “special projects”, developed with seed funding from Oxfam Novib and scaled up with the support of institutional donors including Danida, SIDA, the Ford Foundation, the Hewlett Foundation, the European Union, IFAD and others. Due to recent budget cuts across the Dutch government, a number of projects which had previously been earmarked for support from Oxfam Novib’s core funding are now open for external support.
special projects currently in operation or being developed, and available for co-funding, include:

sustainable palm oil - 21 mrt 2011

women’s empowerment - 21 mrt 2011

universal acces to female condoms - 21 mrt 2011

Why I support this project: 'We saw that the UAFC project could add value by being targeted and comprehensive'

Why I support his project: 'I am noticing in the international discourse that female condoms are mentioned more and more often'
The Dutch word “zelfdoen” captures our approach: we believe in people doing things themselves. Therefore we have always attached great importance to building capacity wherever we work.
