Our FIVE ways OF innovating development cooperation

We deeply believe in the importance of development collaboration and the positive impact that human development initiatives can have on vulnerable communities. Together, we aim at innovating capacity training efforts by creating and delivering digital solutions, which will make development more sustainable, inclusive and diverse. Together, we act to make our world more liveable by translating digital opportunities into tangible added values for our global target groups. Our actions can be separated into 5 pillars:

E-learning Platform

We operate a full-scope e-learning platform, enabling and delivering synchronous (live) and asynchronous (on-demand) expert knowledge to diverse target groups and regions.

Network Organization

As a decentralized and globally located digital organization, we connect and facilitate collaboration among development professionals around the world. We do this by providing cutting-edge digital infrastructures and applying powerful communication tools. 

An indaba (pronounced in-dah-bah) is an important conference held by the izinDuna (principal men) of the Zulu and Xhosa peoples of South Africa. Indabas may include only the izinDuna of a particular community, or they may be held with representatives of other communities. The term “Indaba” comes from the Zulu and Xhosa languages. It means “business” or “matter”.
