Member base and project funding

It's all in the mix: Member base & project funding

IWO is a member-based association. At the same time, we finance the majority of our work and resources through projects supported by the Federal Republic of Germany, the EU or other international donors. Through practical project work, IWO has built up comprehensive expertise and networks.
