With the publication of its own annual report, COSV intends to give a concrete follow-up to the “Charter of Accountability“, signed in 2013 with the other NGOs belonging to Link2007.
Accuracy and transparency, with reference both to the management of resources and to the communication of the results achieved by projects,are for us fundamental elements of our identity, culture and strategic vision. Publicly accounting for our management, the activities carried out, the methodologies used and the results achieved, becomes a non-formal obligation that we feel we must comply with.
We have worked to make our Annual Report comprehensive, but concise and accessible; able to reflect our achievements over a year full of commitments and activities; to allow all readers – even those who do not know us – to understand what we do, why, how and with what prospects. Finally, we would like it to be interesting also to other actors and stakeholders working in development cooperation.
In the final section you can find the 2013 Financial Statement.
