SNV
“SNV is dedicated to a society where all people enjoy the freedom to pursue their own sustainable development. Our advisors contribute to this by strengthening the capacities of local organisations.???
Poverty results from unequal access to resources and power, between different social and cultural groups and between men and women. SNV believes the basic purpose of development is to enlarge people's choices; to create an enabling environment for people to enjoy long, healthy and creative lives.
The fight against poverty needs strong organisations that serve the interests of the poor and are able to change the structures that sustain poverty. SNV works with organisations that operate at district and provincial level and function as linking pins between national policies and frameworks and the people living in towns and communities. Its clients include private, governmental and civil society organisations.
These organisations are served by locally present teams of national and international experts. Our added value is that our experts combine their thematic expertise with skills in organisational development, partnership building and institutional strengthening.
