Can I trust Akvo?
Trust is very important to Akvo. We are careful about who we put ours in, and view the trust that others put in us as a serious responsibility. We are carefully building out our “trusted partner network” using a thorough vetting process, adding new Support partners who already have a track record in development aid work (see the Akvo partner rules). As Support partners bring Field partners they currently work with into the system, our total network can expand and reach farther. We are as open as possible about what we do, in both the creation of our tools and the financing that supports it. Our accounts are audited every year by independent public accountants, and the reports are published on our website.
