How does the pilot South-South Exchange assess Solution Providers?
Solution Providers are screened as compliant with high governance, transparency and efficiency practices through either: i) accreditation with a United Nations body, such as the IRENE NGO Best Practices network of the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs NGO Section, ii) recent due diligence performed on the institution and practices of the Solution Provider by a UN agency that entered into a partnership with them, or iii) listing on a the partner social investment exchanges, such as The South African Social Investment Exchange (SASIX).
Best Practices posted by Solution Providers are peer-reviewed by a panel of at least 3 experts working in the same field and geographic region.
