We ensure that most of our resources are allocated to our missions to maximize impact. Our budget is divided into two key categories:
Direct expenses that support our programs, projects and services for the communities we serve. These include field operations, program implementation (including salaries of implementing staff), support to local partners and direct beneficiary support.
Essential administrative expenses that keep our organization running effectively. This includes administrative staff salaries, office expenses, fundraising, and governance.

Our resources are mainly allocated to direct project implementation in partner countries, but also to advocacy and awareness raising activities in Belgium that reinforces our impact. A third category of expenses is support to other NGOs for specific projects, as is the case for Operation 11.11.11.

Our funding comes from a mix of subsidies and own resources, ensuring financial stability and sustained impact. Subsidies provide essential support for large-scale and long term projects, while own resources offer flexibility and independence in decision-making.
