Cooperation Between NGOs: Joint Work and Support

Cooperation between civil society organizations often remains project-based and temporary. The Network aims to make these relationships sustainable.

Forms of cooperation

• Joint application, establishing partnerships in funding applications
• Resource sharing, space, equipment, expertise
• Joint advocacy, multiple organizations voicing the same demand
• Knowledge transfer, mentoring from experienced organizations to newly established ones

How to establish cooperation through the Network?

Specify your organization in your profile, join relevant groups, and share your cooperation calls in the feed. A topic you open in the Discussions section will receive more responses than a direct message.

Maintaining cooperation

Partnership does not have to be a relationship that ends when the project ends. Regular contact, even if brief, once a month, keeps the ground ready for the next cooperation. Clarifying roles and expectations in writing from the beginning prevents many later problems.
