Strategic plan 2025- 2027
Wilde Ganzen fights poverty by supporting the small-scale, concrete projects of local partner organisations. We are unique on two fronts: cooperation with private development initiatives (PDIs) in the Netherlands and local fundraising in the Global South. And we co-initiated the debate on the theme of shift the power in the Dutch sector of international cooperation.
The choices we are making for the coming years are based on people-centred principles, localisation and shift the power.

Annual report 2023
2023 was a great year for the Wilde Ganzen Foundation. We supported over 330 projects across more than 50 countries. We also devoted extra attention to local community participation and learned a lot from the participatory grant-making pilots in which communities themselves decide what the money is spent on.

Theory of Change
Our Theory of Change outlines the impact and social change we aim to create as a result of our work. We envision a world where people living in poverty can, in their own strength, improve their situation and build a better future. To contribute to this change, we follow three strategies, detailed in our Theory of Change.
