Partners
Work with us
GARD's education and development in education work across the MENA region is stronger with partners: organisations, institutions and individuals who bring something GARD does not already have.
01 - Who we work with
Four kinds of partnership
None of these are mutually exclusive, and a first conversation costs nothing but an email.
- 01Local and international NGOsOrganisations already working in the MENA region, for joint delivery, referral pathways, or sharing what each of us has learned about a specific community or context.
- 02Academic and research institutionsUniversities and research bodies interested in the conflict-affected and fragile contexts GARD works in, including through the field researcher network described on our News page.
- 03Corporate and professional contributorsBusinesses and individual professionals offering skills rather than only funds: legal, medical, design, logistics or technical expertise applied directly to a programme's needs.
- 04Individual contributorsPeople with relevant experience, language skills or local knowledge who want to give time rather than, or alongside, a contribution.
What partnership looks like
Joint delivery, not just co-branding
A partnership with GARD usually means one of: delivering a programme activity together on the ground, contributing professional time to a specific need, referring people between services, or co-developing a proposal for a funder neither of us could reach alone. It is funded and recorded the same way GARD's own programmes are, so what a partnership actually did is reportable, not just announced.
02 - Right now
A live opportunity: field researchers
GARD is currently expanding its network of local researchers in conflict-affected and fragile contexts. If your organisation works in research, monitoring or evaluation, this is a concrete place to start.
