Civil Society
Faiqua Foundation’s civil society activities focus on extending, improving and sustaining health, education and welfare services for the poor by creating partnerships involving government, business and citizen organisations.
This thematic area draws together two long-standing Foundation concerns. First, it provides an umbrella for the Foundation's response to the oft-expressed needs of many of its partners for advice and related institutional strengthening services.
Its rural support programmes became successful intermediary vehicles to facilitate a village-driven approach to increasing rural incomes and asset building.
Our Goal
Make it possible for poor people to act in ways that will lead to long-term improvements in their income and health, in the environment and in the education of their children.- Provide communities with a greater range of choices and the understanding necessary to take informed action.
- Enable beneficiaries to gain the confidence and competence to participate in the design, implementation and continuing operation of activities that affect the quality of their lives.
- Put institutional, management and financial structures in place ensuring that programme activities are sustainable without Foundation
