Cordaid

Cordaid is an internationally operating development and humanitarian assistance organisation, working in and on fragility to foster peaceful, equitable and resilient societies. We believe in a world where people can break through barriers of poverty and exclusion, and influence decisions that affect them. A world with an economy not driven by greed and growth, but by inclusivity, social justice, and gender equality.    

In the realm of security and justice Cordaid is leading the Just Future Alliance, a programme that aims to achieve equitable access to justice for all, people-centered security and inclusive governance and peace processes, in the framework of the rule of law, transparency, and accountability. Using a range of strategies including capacity strengthening, evidence – based research, and advocacy, the programme operates in six of the most fragile countries, Afghanistan, Burundi, DRC, Mali, Niger and South Sudan. By linking local efforts to national, regional, and global policy frameworks, the programme seeks to elevate the advocacy of marginalised groups onto the global agenda, ensuring that global commitments are responsive to local needs. It emphasises global South-South and fragile-fragile cooperation for knowledge sharing and aims to find global solutions to local challenges.
