The Resilience Fund Community Platform connects resilient actors and strengthens their capacities.
A resilient network
The Resilience Fund not only equips individuals and group initiatives with financial resources, and capacity and skills-building tools to strengthen resilience at the community level, it also facilitates collaborative spaces and processes for its beneficiaries.
The platform exists to unleash the potential of the Resilience Fund network, as a multicultural, multilingual and multidisciplinary space of encounter for civil society actors working on the frontlines of organized crime -a safe space to come together and feel we are not fighting alone.
This has made it possible to build a robust network of activists, journalists, indigenous leaders, artists, rights defenders, victims' collectives and other organizations whose impact is palpable in their communities.
To sustain the collaborative efforts of this network and ensure greater impact at the international level, the Fund has created the Resilience Fund Community Platform.
What is the Resilience Fund Community Platform?
A space to connect resilient actors and strengthen their capacities to better respond to the challenges they face in their communities.
We have connected and established ongoing communication with our registered members: +190 partners from all over the world with completed or ongoing Resilience Fund projects or grants.
Through this platform, the Resilience Fund shares with its members relevant information, offered by the GI-TOC and its partner organizations, such as funding opportunities, training and engagement opportunities, invitations to research processes, and news about this growing resilient community.
If you are a new Resilience Fund partner, you will soon receive the invitation to be part of the Resilience Fund Community Platform.
VIVA: A secure digital space
Created in 2020, VIVA is the Resilience Fund’s dedicated digital platform designed to connect its growing global network of civil society actors. Developed in response to the need for a secure and protected online environment, VIVA enables partners to share their work, exchange experiences, and engage with peers across regions.
Through VIVA, members exchange updates, document project progress, and stay connected to activities across the network in a protected space. The platform supports ongoing collaboration and visibility while ensuring that sensitive information is shared responsibly.
VIVA currently brings together +150 users across Latin America, Africa, Asia, and other regions. In addition to fostering peer exchange, it serves as a tool for engagement and learning, allowing the Fund to remain connected to the evolving contexts of its partners.
VIVA helps strengthen collective exchange and connection within the Resilience Fund Community Platform.
