How to make sure a good project continues even when NGOs close their doors
Instead, organisations are innovating creative solutions that meet the best interests of NGOs, partners, funders and people in communities. Some organisations have seen success with mergers; Action on Poverty decided that the acquisition of one of African Initiatives' projects was the best way to maximise the value brought by APT and the Tanzanian partner organisation Tusonge, ensuring that the project could complete its full cycle and this important work to empower people with disabilities to claim their rights and earn an income of their own could continue.
“I stand with APT and I wish everyone can find time and a way that they can support them as well” -Big Zuu
