CORDAID CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY POLICY - Our vision Our mission - 1. Social Topics

We have a policy in place to screen donations and other organizations based on the exclusion of certain sectors, the endorsement of the UN Global Compact for companies, the Equator Principles for financial institutions and the EITI Principles for extractive companies. [...] But we cannot implement and execute our programs and projects without the support of administrative, fundraising, campaigning in other essential activities in both our head office in The Hague and in our country offices around the world. [...] In line with their guidance, in our annual report and on our website, we explain our fundraising strategy and methodologies and the ratio between the costs and returns of fundraising. [...] We have budgeted our own targets for this in line with the CBF guidance, and in our annual report we publish how our actual spending on our mission, fundraising and other indirect costs compares to the budgeted costs. [...] We choose to work in fragile states and therefore costs to keep our people and our partners safe are an essential part of our local office and program expenses.
