Module 12: Advanced techniques for local fundraising

Many civil society organisations  (CSOs) rely heavily on donor funding. This can make your organisation vulnerable, because the donor might decide to stop your funding at any time. This module will help CSOs to explore innovative financial models: consultancy services, asset building, membership fees, social enterprise, microcredit, subsidiary profit-making enterprises, incubation, private sector funding, social and green bonds, crowdfunding and fiscal sponsorship.  

Why

When CSOs (civil society organisations) increase and diversify their income by implementing alternative funding models, they become stronger, more autonomous and less dependent on foreign funding.

What you can expect

We will describe 11 alternative, innovative funding models, indicate for which organisations they are suitable, and offer next steps to access the funding.
