Hivos is a unique international organization that works towards more open and green societies in which people can live their lives in freedom and dignity. To achieve this, we innovate for social change. Based on a track record of almost 50 years of partnering with frontrunners in daring, innovative and impactful development programs, Hivos seeks new and creative solutions to persistent global problems. Problems that prevent people from taking their lives into their own hands, and that threaten our earth, which is after all the basis of our existence. In particular, Hivos promotes empowering citizens and helping them achieve the independence necessary in order to execute smart projects in the right places. We enable them to contribute to a fair, free and sustainable world in which green economies and open societies can flourish. Contributing alone, however, is not enough, and quick fixes don’t exist. Opposition alone, however, is not enough, and quick fixes don’t exist. Hivos strives for structural change. We firmly believe that we can only realise this through co-operation between civil society and innovative businesses, and enlightened governments. With these frontrunners, we share a dream of sustainable economies and inclusive societies.
