WE ARE HIVOS, an international organization that seeks new solutions to persistent global issues. With smart projects in the right places, we oppose discrimination, inequality, abuse of power and the unsustainable use of our planet’s resources. Counterbalance alone, however, is not enough. Our primary focus is achieving structural change. This is why we cooperate with innovative businesses, citizens and their organizations. We share a dream with them of sustainable economies and inclusive societies.
WE BELIEVE that every human being has the right to live in freedom and dignity. You can be who you are. Moreover, you should have the freedom to believe and say what you want, to challenge governments and stir up the established order. Your freedom only ends where another person’s freedom begins, and of course where the earth imposes her limits. The depletion of natural resources, loss of biodiversity and climate change already have major implications for the most vulnerable inhabitants of our planet. They, and future generations, are entitled to a truly sustainable world.
WE COOPERATE with various partners across four continents. These can be artists, lawyers, or hackers, but also governments, energy companies and knowledge institutions. What our partners have in common is that they seek to bring about social change through innovative ways. We recognize that same drive in many people across the world.
