Mission & Interests
Goals: Fingo is an NGO platform and an expert on global development. We represent 270 Finnish civil society organisations and strive to build a fairer world for all. Fingo and its member organisations work to make life better – for everyone.
Kepa and the Finnish NGDO Platform to the European Union, Kehys, have formed a new umbrella organisation: Finnish Development NGOs – Fingo. Kehys used to be a member of the transparency register (ID number: 00358354936-30)
Fingo functions as an umbrella organisation of 270 member organisations working in the areas of sustainable development, development cooperation and global citizenship education. We firmly believe that knowledge drives sustainable development. That's why Fingo works hard to strengthen and amplify people’s understanding of the solutions that are available – and challenges decision makers to act, while encouraging individuals and communities to actively participate.
