Rights Action 2004 year-end report

PROJECTS WE FUND

Self-design, Self-implementation, Self-evaluation

The non government organizations (NGOs) and community based organizations (CBOs) that are the beneficiaries of our development, emergency and human rights support, have the principal role in implementing projects of their own design.

Small is beautiful and dynamic

Rights Action pays particular attention to supporting new CBOs located in shanty-towns and isolated rural regions. Lasting transformation of the global order must begin and take place in each and every marginalized and/or oppressed barrio and rural communuity.

Strengthening organizational capacity

To support community organizations that daily confront the wide range of global and local injustices, NGO and CBO capacity building is vital:
- To grow in their communities in a democratic manner, responding to needs presented.
- To design, plan and administer their own projects.
- To coordinate work experiences with other local and international organizations.
- To improve their educational and technical abilities.
- To achieve financial diversity and independence.
