Ibis
Ibis is a Danish non-governmental, non-profit development and solidarity organisation with programmes in Africa, Latin America and Denmark.
Ibis’s vision is a world, in which all people have equal access to education, influence and resources.
Ibis’s mission is:
• to secure people equal access to education, influence and resources through support for civil society in Africa and Latin America.
• to influence the political agenda, create greater understanding of the problems facing developing countries, and point to specific options for action through information and advocacy.
Ibis sees education as a human right and the path to generating sustainable development for the individual and for society. The organisation therefore works for equal access to education for all children, women and men, as well as for quality in teaching.
Ibis believes that all people have the right to influence their own life and society, and the organisation supports popular organisations in their work to safeguard these rights and promotes democratic conditions in local communities.
Ibis believes that all people have the right to a fair share of the world’s resources. Ibis therefore supports popular organisations in their efforts to make globalisation benefit the world’s poorest as well, and participates in the debate on global economic and political issues.
Ibis has four focus areas:
• Education for Change
• Local Governance and Popular Participation
• HIV/AIDS
• Global Structural Causes of Poverty
