ChildFund New Zealand’s Road Map approach is their preferred approach to building partnerships within communities. Their aim is to ensure that development work does not create long-term dependencies and so this Road Map approach focuses on strengthening localisation and self-reliance.
By including a wide range of stakeholders from the community level, CFNZ works with local partners to plan, create goals and lead activities that strengthen local organisations and build capacity across a 5-10 year period. Developing a close relationship with local partners is key to building trust and ensuring that the Road Map approach is being fulfilled to a point where CFNZ can scale back their support to the community.
All information from this process is captured, published and shared within the community, increasing accountability and transparency.
To find out more about this process, how it is designed and implemented, check out CFNZ’s Road Mapping Guidebook.
Organisations working on development projects at the community level
45,000+ organizations operating in 180+ countries are using the Global Standard to guide their work and put people at the heart of their accountability measures. Now, the 10 cohosts are working to review and refresh the Standard to ensure its fit for the future too. If you work in or with civil society, and believe our accountability practice should center the people we work for and with, we want to hear from you.
