Netherlands: Both ENDS

Both ENDS, in Amsterdam, Netherlands, supports organizations in developing countries in the fight against poverty and in work towards sustainable environmental management. Along with its Joke Waller Initiative, a project that gives small grants support for individual leadership, it joined the Greengrants Alliance of Funds in 2010.  As part of the Alliance, Both ENDS engages with Greengrants on initiatives to build support for and educaton about small grants approaches to sustainability and environmental justice.

Based on the principle that people know their own problems and can come up with their own solutions, Both ENDS has helped hundreds of organizations in Africa, Asia, and Latin America to find funding, expand their networks, collect information, engage in dialogue with policy makers, promote recognition of local rights, and call attention to the role of gender in environmental sustainability.
