The ICCO organization consists of a Global Office (GO) in Utrecht and 7 Regional Offices (RO), in South Africa, Mali, Uganda, Nepal, Indonesia, Nicaragua and Bolivia. With approx. 270 employees (60% non-Dutch) and a budget of 70M€ we work in a coherent framework of specific themes to fight poverty, injustice and provide emergency relief. ICCO is a networking organization that works with other NGO’s, governments and private sector parties.
Raising funds to execute our thematic programs in the regions is a core activity for ICCO. We finance our work via private funds raised via our alliance partners, the Dutch government and via institutional donor organizations like Europe Aid, ECHO, Regional Development Banks, multilateral organizations and foundations.

This core unit supports a network of 8 regional funding officers that work in the regional offices. In the coming years the fundraising activities will be further intensified and diversified. ICCO has not only the ambition to increase its program budgets in the coming years, but also to attract funds from other donor sources and of a different nature. This requires a substantial increase of our fundraising activities. ICCO chose already to realize a substantial part of these ambitions in cooperation with private sector parties and via public private partnerships.
