ICCO / Kerkinactie

ICCO is the Interchurch Organisation for Development Co-operation and
Kerkinactie is part of the Protestant Church in the Netherlands. ICCO
and Kerkinactie combine their knowledge, means and policies to enable
them to do their work in developing countries better and more
efficiently. Although they cooperate quite closely, ICCO and
Kerkinactie continue to operate as separate organisations.

Together we provide financial support and advice to local
organisations and networks throughout the world that are dedicated to
improving access to basic services, stimulating sustainable economic
development and advancing peace and democracy. We also put
enterprising people in the Netherlands and developing countries in
contact with one another. We work very closely with social
organisations, including development organisations, educational
institutions and businesses. Our assistance goes to help people in
Latin America, Asia, Africa and Eastern Europe build a more dignified
existence and become financially independent. ICCO has plans to
decentralise part of its organisation, whereby, in all likelihood,
some employees will perform their duties from a regional office. ICCO
has 250 employees.
