CIVA operates as a virtual organisation. We employ no staff and keep our administrative costs to an absolute minimum.
We adopt the following strategy for developing our projects and implementing our programmes:
We consult and work with others to develop ideas for a project.
We find whatever funding is needed to get the project going.
We plan and oversee the start up of the project.
We develop a strategy for the further development of the programme, building on the experience of the start-up stage and bringing in partner organisations to work with us as appropriate.
We establish an independent structure for the continuation the project on a viable and sustainable basis, or we hand over the further development of the project to another organisation.
We are committed to collaboration and to sharing our ideas and experience with others.
