Together1world
Whoever you are, wherever you live, we all live together in one world, with many common interests. We want to be healthy, feel safe, live a decent life and pass on our earth to future generations.
Every human being has the right to the same fair opportunities for a good life and a liveable earth. Unfortunately, many people do not get those opportunities now. Because our times bring great challenges. Challenges that are interconnected and affect us all. Poverty, climate crisis, migration, oppression. In the process, we see that people in other countries often have a particularly difficult time. Together, we want to change that!
The power of cooperation
The challenges are greater than ever, but we believe in the power of cooperation. That is why we take action together for less poverty, more justice and a better climate. Everyone in the Netherlands can actively contribute. In your own way. As an individual, through the choices you make as a consumer and through your political voice. Or through supporting social movements or expert development organisations.
With years of knowledge and experience, we as Dutch development organisations, together with our partners, achieve tangible results that give hope for the future. With better living conditions for people and opportunities for nature.
From the Netherlands, we can further increase our impact in the world if we work together. With citizens, government, businesses and science. Because together we are strong.
Join us! For a fair, just and sustainable world.
The impact of development cooperation
Development cooperation stands for a broad package of activities, policies and strategies to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). And with results! Globally, poverty has been halved since 1990. As a result, fewer people are malnourished, more are educated and employed. Meanwhile, 90% of children in poor countries attend primary school. Malaria and tuberculosis have been halted. And 2.3 billion people worldwide have clean drinking water. Together, we can create a fair, just and sustainable world with opportunities for all!
