Hivos Focus
Hivos and Climate
Rich countries consume large quantities of fossil fuels, which makes them responsible for the climate change across the world. People in developing countries are largely affected by this. Hivos therefore encourages a transition to renewable energy and invests in sustainable energy in developing countries.
Hivos and LGBT
Emancipation and development are inextricably linked to the right to freedom, self-determination and equal access to opportunities and possibilities. For that reason the rights of lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgenders (LGBT) or any other sexual minority are also important in this process. Hivos supports partner organisations in their struggle for social acceptance, the freedom to express sexual identity, counteracting homophobia and scrapping anti-gay laws.
