Count me in as a Solution Provider

A Solutions Provider is a developing country institution that has had a successful experience in human development and is willing to cooperate to replicate that experience in another developing country. Solution Providers post their Best Practice at the pilot South-South Exchange partnership building market.

Once the Best Practice is peer-reviewed, if it is favorably assessed, it becomes a Proven Solution.

Other developing country institutions working to address similar development challenges can look at Proven Solutions posted on the pilot South-South Exchange. If they find one that they would like to learn and to implement in their community, they can request cooperation.

Following a successful match between a Solution Provider and a Solution Seeker, a project is drafted and offered to social investors to fund the initiative.

If the cooperation project obtains the resources it needs, the Solution Provider, in partnership with the Solution Seeker, implement the cooperation project.

Making a difference as a Solution Provider

Solution Providers get to:

  • Showcase their Best Practice,
  • Obtain feedback on their Best Practice from experts in similar fields and regions,
  • Identify partners in need for their Proven Development Solution,
  • Cooperate for the replication of their successful experience,
  • Learn from other developing country institutions with which they cooperate and from the new context in which the cooperation takes place,
  • Advance human development in other developing country communities.
