Connecting people’s capacities  

SNV has been active in West and Central Africa for 40 years. We are well known in the region as a key partner for local authorities and other actors involved in decentralisation processes. This makes us an interesting partner in the basic services education, water & sanitation and health.

We also help poor people to improve their income in the fields of livestock and pastoralism, cotton, timber and non-timber forest products, oilseeds and fruits & vegetables.
