The annual meeting between the Government, Monegasque NGOs, and associations active in humanitarian aid, was held on Saturday 13th March 2010.
Frederic Platini, Director of the DCI, announced that 9% of the 10 m euros Official Development Assistance for 2010 was to be allocated to Monegasque NGOs.
Five new associations presented themselves:
An update was given on two projects that involve joint working between Monaco’s associations network and the Government: Monaco Collectif Humanitaire and Monaco Collectif Haiti. Monaco Collectif Humanitaire was set up in 2008 and has enabled over 80 children to receive surgery in the Principality. For Haiti, close to 700,000 euros has been raised to help with reconstruction projects.
The DCI outlined the approval procedure required for associations wishing to obtain co-funding from the Government, as well as the 2010 training program for employees and voluntary workers.
