Together Works
In mutual trust, Partos connects, strengthens, innovates and represents its members for impactful international cooperation. The goal of this cooperation is an inclusive, peaceful, just and sustainable society for all, with a focus on the poorest and most vulnerable groups and territories worldwide. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) form a comprehensive thread in this regard.
2004
The founding year of Partos
It is 2004. More than sixty civil society organisations in the Netherlands want to join forces to speak with a strong, unified voice to the government and other stakeholders. They come together to form Partos. And now, for 20 years, this association has been championing the interests of organisations working on international cooperation in the Netherlands.
