The Pledge for Change 2030 re-imagines the role of INGOs in the global humanitarian and development aid system.
We pledge to build a stronger aid ecosystem based on the principles of solidarity, humility, self-determination, and equality by focusing on three core changes.
The Pledges.
Covid, conflict and climate change have focused attention on the inequities of the world as never before. As leaders of international non-governmental organisations (INGOs), we’re working with national and local organizations worldwide for a fairer future in which all people’s needs are met and their rights upheld, governments fulfill their responsibilities and civil society flourishes.
PLEDGE 1
Equitable Partnerships
We will prioritise and value the leadership of national and local actors and invest in making partners stronger and more sustainable.
PLEDGE 2
AUTHENTIC STORYTELLING
We will use our platforms to show people’s strength and amplify their stories by putting local people at the centre of the story.
PLEDGE 3
INFLUENCING WIDER CHANGE
We will advance our goals by urging our peers, supporters, and donors to join us and transparently sharing our progress and lessons learned.
NOTE
In the interest of maintaining clarity and consistency, we kindly ask that you refer to this initiative as “Pledge” or “Pledge for Change.” We appreciate your cooperation in avoiding abbreviations such as P4C or PFC in any online materials or publications.
