The global agenda has never been so varied, so pressing or so complex. It demands of the international community new approaches, new resources and new commitments of commercial and political will. We cannot wait for governments to do it all.
Qismat Development Fund has been established so we can provide funding and work in coordination with international and national non-governmental organisations. We are especially keen to work with locally attuned grass-roots organisations and civil society groups with innovative project ideas.
Grassroots & Civil Society Organisations
We team with community and grass roots organisations, as well as local governments in the areas of operation to support hands-on, sustainable local projects that reach and empower the most vulnerable people and help rebuild lives and livelihoods.
Local and International NGOs
We work together with local and international organisations active in the field of relief and recovery, and reconstruction and helping to build back better and enhance people's and communities' capacities to help themselves.
Development Agencies
Partnerships are built on the policy and programming levels to foster a climate towards the implementation of development projects that promote sustainable growth.
Private Business Sector
Qismat has developed strategic partnerships with a kaleidoscope of organisations to provide management, media, communications, finance, and other expertise to impart their substantial knowledge to our development goals. Our partnerships help build bridges between sectors and helps support Qismat initiatives to maximize the flow of expertise and talent. In turn, Qismat and its vast network share knowledge and opportunities with business partners, expanding the horizons of these pioneering businesses.
