A new partnership between the F3E and CartONG!
Following several years of exchanges that gained momentum in 2023, marked in particular by an inter-team meeting, the F3E and CartONG formalized their partnership in early 2024 with the signing of a 3-year agreement.
The F3E is a learning network of organizations in humanitarian aid and international development. Its aim is to drive improvements in the practices of its members, and to strengthen their skills, in the service of actions that have a positive impact on social change. In addition to being a benchmark network for the evaluation of practices, the F3E offers innovative, complementary methodologies to bring about change and reduce inequalities.
This partnership is based on the following observations:
- The subjects on which they work, methodologies (intersectional gender, change management approaches, evaluation, capitalization…) for the F3E, data collection / management / use for CartONG, are complementary and are likely to give rise, through this partnership, to cross-fertilization;
- The CartONG and the F3E audiences share certain similarities, but also have their differences, which justifies this partnership. On the one hand, it aims to enrich the content offered to their shared audiences, and on the other, to open up to new audiences for both organizations;
- CartONG and the F3E are part of a collective approach to the production, dissemination and use of knowledge. They share a role in structuring the associative milieu of humanitarian aid and international development, supported in this respect by the Agence Française de Développement (AFD) and the Ministère de l’Europe et des Affaires Etrangères (MEAE).
Its aims are to:
- Bringing CartONG and the F3E closer together on their work topics, in terms of strengthening their teams’ mutual knowledge of them, and developing new, shared content for their respective audiences and networks, with a view to methodological innovation;
- Increased visibility of the partnership developed between the F3E and CartONG, for their respective audiences and networks, and for their joint partners.
Let’s wish this new partnership a long life, and many useful creations for humanitarian aid and international development actors!
