Working in alliances with peer organisations is part of a strategy. This is a way of putting resources together to channel a common voice for common objectives. This is particularly strategic when we want to bring changes in behaviors, in policy, in ways of working. Alliances are also an irreplaceable way of learning, getting intelligence and being challenged by peers. Each Terre des Hommes organisation are active respective networks at national or international level.
