Contributions to NGOs

Contributions support NGO-initiated programmes and projects. The SDC differentiates between programme contributions and targeted contributions.

Programme Contributions

Programme contributions are grants provided to Swiss NGO’s international programmes. They enable NGOs to respond flexibly to changing situations.

Targeted contributions

The SDC may provide targeted contributions for specific projects or initiatives by Swiss or foreign NGOs. Such contributions are granted for activities that are in line with the SDC’s thematic and regional or country strategies.
