How we work
The Huisman Foundation operates according to a carefully chosen strategy and focus.
The geographical focus of the Huisman Foundation is Sub-Sahara Africa. Within Sub-Sahara Africa we will select a few regions in which we will try to establish a longlasting, sustainable presence. Click here to read more about the geographical focus of the Huisman Foundation.
Sustainable development can not be realized when improvements are restricted to one or two single areas. However, the Huisman Foundation will operate on a few areas only. Therefore it will seek cooperation with foundations/organisations active in complementary fields. The Huisman Foundation will focus on water&sanitation, sustainable energy, health&welfare and stimulating entrepreneurship. Click here to read more about the thematic focus of the Huisman Foundation.
