We are committed to accompanying local social entities and other agents of change in the area in order to move towards systemic changes.

Our challenge

We live in a profoundly unequal world. A world in which almost half of the population has to survive on less than $5.50 a day. Hundreds of millions of people - from the moment of their birth - are still deprived of the possibility of leading a dignified, full, healthy, productive and happy life.

From Nous Cims we are committed to the accompaniment of local social entities and other agents of change in the area to move towards systemic changes.

We jointly identified concrete and realistic goals in the areas of education, nutrition and employability, as well as in other more cross-cutting aspects such as gender equity or the strengthening of the social fabric.

Model zones

Being aware of our size and prioritizing maximum impact, we have opted for a strategy of geographic concentration with two focus countries: Senegal and Colombia, on which we will focus our efforts over a time horizon of no less than 10 years.

This is made possible by a local figure, the country antenna, who coordinates and works directly with the partner entities that implement the different projects and in turn leads the defined change strategy and the different interlocutions required for each of the model zones.

The role of Nous Cims

Nous Cims, in its role of facilitation and accompaniment, beyond financing, focuses its efforts on two key aspects:

1

Thematic specialization in three areas of action(nutrition, education and employability) through the definition of programmatic frameworks and technical accompaniment of the entities.

2

Establishment of a robust monitoring, evaluation and learning system to measure impact, learn and generate evidence-based knowledge.
