Fundación CODESPA

CODESPA is an international development NGO with 38 years of experience, focused on ending the cycle of extreme poverty in rural communities around the world by supporting the growth of local entrepreneurs and social enterprises, creating decent business and employment opportunities for the most vulnerable men and women, resulting in increased household incomes and improving the lives of more than 5 million people and their families. Since its inception to date, CODESPA has managed around 1.250 projects in 34 countries in Latin America, Africa and Asia. Our Honorary President is His Majesty Felipe VI, the King of Spain. In 2012 we set up a specialized consultancy unit called CODESPApro, and we have provided services to several international organizations (such as EU, USAID, MCC, WB, IADB, CAF, GIZ, AFD, FAO, Enabel, as well as public and private sector entities).
