what NODEPA does
The 21sth century has seen formidable changes all over the world. Millions of people have been lifted out of poverty.
More children are able to read and write than at any point in human history. Access to healthcare has improved and life expectancy is now on average over 72 years globally. Technology has made it possible for people living in the most remote corners of the world to get online.
Yet, despite the many strides that have been made, the development has been uneven. The gap between the rich and the poor continues to grow in rich as well as poor countries. In many places, a rapid urbanization has led to a strain on many services, resulting in high unemployment and poor access to quality education and health care. On top of this, global climate change is now threatening the livelihoods of millions of people.
how we work
let's develop!
1
partnership
The success of NODEPA depends on effective partnerships. Through local partnerships and a global network of donors and contributors, we can provide the right resources to specific needs. This enables the organization to partner and work effectively with local governments, civil society, institutions, and businesses.
2
strategic positions
People are important and have an impact on neighborhoods, workplaces, and communities. NODEPA, therefore, strives to link skilled personnel to key positions within institutions, both public and private, who through their life and work can have a positive impact on colleagues and those around them.
3
investment
NODEPA has two types of investments, namely in non-governmental development projects and in small-scale enterprises. It is important for NODEPA that development projects and businesses are anchored locally. Profits stemming from investments will be re-invested in the community.
