Donor
The Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) has been providing financial support to partners who use CVA since the 1990s. By offering flexible core funding to its main partners, SDC enables these partners to choose the most appropriate aid modality for each specific project. SDC is recognised as an engaged donor actively participating in technical discussions and policy dialogues, highlighting the interconnectedness between its advocacy efforts, experience in direct implementation, and its role as a donor.
