NGO Empowerment for Poverty Reduction Programme
Background
The NGO Empowerment for Poverty Reduction Programme (Tadamon) is focused on supporting Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) from Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) member countries (MCs) improve the socio-economic well-being of hard-to-reach communities. As a platform to connect efforts of all partners, Tadamon is committed to building stronger communities and helping the less fortunate.
A Tadamon Accelerator output was added in 2022 to enhance capacity and access to funding for CSOs addressing issues related to the pandemic and its effects, support Resource Mobilization, digital transformation and the transition to more sustainable business models.
NGO Empowerment for Poverty Reduction is a partnership programme sponsored by The Islamic Solidarity Fund for Development (ISFD), managed by The Islamic Development Bank (IsDB), and implemented by United Nations Development Program (UNDP).
