Partner Organization
YesWeAre seeks to collaborate with other organizations. Together, we can achieve excellent results. For example, for a development aid organization, a contribution can take the same form as described for other organizations above, or the aid organization and YesWeAre can collaborate to build a project together. This could, for example, look like the examples below. Below are also examples of how a municipality could collaborate with YesWeAre.
| Kenya | Sweden |
| Invest in an Entire Village Over 3 Years This YesWeAre investment is best suited when a company or organization is also supporting other development initiatives in the village, such as a water project, school project, or entrepreneurship project. Village elders are positive involved in the work. Schools in the village participate in YesWeAre lessons, clubs, and training for all staff. Many other organizations, such as churches and sports clubs, also take part in the YesWeAre project. Training and coaching for school staff, youth workers, and parents are included.The goal is that, after three years, the community climate in the village will embrace human rights, reduce corruption, and increase residents’ interest from age 4 and up, in building a positive society. A YesWeAre ambassador works on-site during the project period. The cost depends on the scope and is determined together based on how we design the project. | Invest in a Socioeconomically Disadvantaged Area, 3 Years The foundation of the work is the school(s), but as many community institutions as possible are welcomed into the project.
