In this context of a country marked by inequality and povertycollaboration between companies and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) is presented as an indispensable tool to promote social development and contribute to the construction of a more just and equitable future.
Although social organizations carry out tireless work every day to bring more opportunities and rights to vulnerable communities, strategic collaboration with companies and other institutions allows us to amplify the scope of that impact.
The collective impact is what really contributes sustainable value to the development objectives we propose.

In addition to having the expertise and experiences of companies to develop more ambitious and sustainable programs and projects. It is about breaking a little with the logic of Solidarity Responsibility to begin to understand each other as strategic partners in matters of social investment and cultural change.

A great example of collaboration between institutions and the third sector is the project co-financed by the European Union, “Getting to the North”, which seeks to promote social rights, social and economic inclusion of the Wichi, Chorote and Ava Guaraní communities that They live in the territories of the Gran Chaco.

In turn, at the beginning of 2023, the Impacto Verde project began to be implemented, a proposal from Team Europe Argentina that implements Redes Chaco and that aims to promote a multi-sector collective agreement between public actors in the Norte Grande region of Argentina. civil society and private. In this way, it becomes possible to promote territorial linkage programs between companies and communities, and promote employability and green entrepreneurship capabilities, with special emphasis on young people and women.
Without a doubt, the alliance between institutions, companies and NGOs can generate a positive and lasting impact on the lives of the people most in need and demonstrate that by joining forces, the potential for social change has no limits.
Today it is essential that the private sector recognizes its role as an agent of change and commits to working hand in hand with organizations that fight for a fairer Argentina with equal opportunities.
