Alliances:
Connecting and amplifying impacts

Alliances have the power to mobilize resources, enhance actions, and collectively increase the impact of our work and that of our allies. They also allow us to bring new resources to Central America that would not be possible otherwise. This year we continued to develop joint initiatives with the Latin American Alliance of Women’s Funds, which is made up of eight funds from Latin America. We also continue to lead GAGGA (Global Alliance for Green and Gender Action), together with Both ENDS and Mama Cash.

Alliances allow us various possibilities for collective action. For example, with GAGGA, in coordination with the Dutch Ministry of Cooperation, we participated in the United Nations Conference on Water, where we held a parallel event to highlight the importance of financing women’s organizations and the link between water and gender justice. We also held the regional gathering “GAGGA Latin America and the Caribbean,” about the Green Climate Fund (GCF), with the participation of several NGOs, women’s funds and environmental funds. In addition, we carried out a collaboration led by IAFN and integrated by AIDA, WEDO, Fondo Tierra Viva, and the Salvadoran Ecological Unit, who participated in a process of collective learning/monitoring in situ by the civil society of projects financed by the GCF.
