About SNV

SNV is an international not-for-profit development organisation. We believe that no-one should have to live in poverty and that all people should have the opportunity to pursue their own sustainable development.

Starting out in the Netherlands more than 40 years ago, we now work in over 30 countries in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Our global team of over 900 advisors use their specialist expertise in Agriculture, Renewable Energy and Water, Sanitation & Hygiene to contribute to solving some of the leading problems facing the world today.

SNV aims to make a lasting difference in the lives of 40 million people living in poverty over the period 2011-2015.

Costa Rica

Neighboring Nicaragua to the south, Costa Rica is one of the most developed Central American countries, with the highest per capita income in the region. SNV has worked in Costa Rica on several Central America regional initiatives. These projects include:

  • Central American Scenario Building, which brought together government, private sector, and civil society stakeholders to visualize and document possible economic development paths for the region
  • Feasibility study for the use of coffee and sugar cane waste to produce bioethanol
  • Private Sector Mapping to identify firms that have or are interesting in connecting to majority markets.

Currently, SNV is exploring opportunities to promote Inclusive Business in Costa Rica. These opportunities will contribute to sustainable job creation through developing new business models with established companies, particularly in the agriculture sector.
