ICCO-Alliance

Since 2007 the ICCO Alliance, Edukans, Kerk in Actie, Oikocredit, Prisma, Share People and ICCO have joined forces. In future years, these organisations will strive to deepen their partnership and create synergies.

These six organisations share a similar identity and a highly committed constituency in the Netherlands. They bring together years of experience and a diversity of relations and partners in developing countries. This allows the alliance to work more effectively and efficiently, to run a comprehensive programme in developing countries, and undertake lobby, advocacy and funding activities.

Mission

The ICCO Alliance's mission is to strive for a world in which people can live in dignity and well-being. The Alliance focuses on three main themes:

  • Sustainable and Fair Economic Development
  • Democratisation and Peace-building
  • Access to Basic Social Services

The ICCO Alliance works on these themes in over 50 countries.

Close collaboration

The ICCO-Alliance works in close collaboration with country or regional alliances that already have been established or are being developed. Within country programs different stakeholders are working towards one program objective. These coalitions consist of stakeholders like civil society organizations (e.g. churches and FBOs), client representations, knowledge institutes and governmental organizations. To assure good cooperation with other donor organisations collaboration is sought locally, particularly with Dutch development organizations like Cordaid and embassies.
