Commit to autonomy

Create benefits for all, and for everything

We believe deeply in guiding all our actions and words from the efficiency, the equity, and the compassion. Efficiency makes our interactions, achievements, and communications. Efficiency makes the best direct way of our interactions, achievements, and communications. Equity promotes equal relations, and compassion helps us to go beyond empathy, and move us to action. From this base, it is easier to launch a genuine and personal commitment between all.

The field partner do not collaborate fo rus, do not help us, and do not work for us. They have a direct implication with the local partners. Our actions are always “with”, that means that we believe in the mutual and bidirectional enrichment. It is very important to value the knowledge and experience of our local partners in their territories. We always approach the action in conjunction with our local partners.

One of the objectives of our foundation is achieving the social cohesion. A cohesive society means “working for the well-being of all the members, fighting against the exclusion, and margination, creating a belonging feeling, promoting trust, and offering the chance of social growth to its members”. If the lines of action exclude one of these features, then we look for alternatives to accomplish all of them.

The growth of capital is essential for successful projects. It is very important for our foundation to develop 3 kinds of capital that we use in our projects to achieve relevant social changes. We get involved in increasing excellence in all aspects that make an idea become a reality, and we enhance what is already underway to generate added value by looking for the best impact. This way is how we generate capital: human, economic, social, and sustainability.

Fostering the autonomy of our partners is a critical component that guides our strategic actions. We usually associate with a local team for management in vulnerable territories, which we accompany to strengthen any capacity ensuring the subsequent independent management. In cases where it is not feasible to support our projects on site, we look to foster the highest independence possible within the local team. It is crucial to exchange knowledge between partners to ensure the achievement.
