Motivated by capacity development
What we believe in
SNV is dedicated to a society where all people enjoy the freedom to pursue their own sustainable development. We contribute to this by strengthening the capacity of local organisations.
How we strive to achieve this
With our motto ‘Connecting people’s capacities’ in mind, every day more than 1,500 SNV professionals across the world call upon their idealism and proven expertise in support of local organisations that have the potential to make a significant contribution to their country’s development.
In over thirty countries worldwide, our advisors are on the ground to listen, connect, advise, facilitate and exchange expertise. Our support is aimed at promoting sustainable development by means of:
- generating production, income and employment opportunities, and
- improving access to basic services.
