CHARTER AND PRINCIPLES

  • The Foundation is independent of any religious or political group and promotes its aims freely and autonomously.
  • The members of the Foundation’s Council and awarding committees sit on a voluntary basis and are nominated according to their competences.
  • Our accounts are checked each year by an independent trustee, as well as by the Swiss Federal Office responsible for monitoring foundations.
  • We favour projects that:
    • Have an effective and lasting impact
    • Benefit from in kind contributions
    • Have a multiplier effect
  • We grant balanced attention to all themes and regions covered by international cooperation.
  • We cooperate closely with the other international scene actors.
  • We promote dialogue and cooperation.
  • Our activities rely, to a great extent, on voluntary work and in kind contributions.
