The Bernard van Leer Foundation

The Bernard van Leer Foundation (BvLF) is a private foundation created in 1949 that is based in the Netherlands and operates internationally. The Foundation is concerned with young children's overall development and therefore promotes a holistic approach including education, health and nutrition.

The mission of the BvLF is to enhance opportunities for children growing up in circumstances of social and economic disadvantage. The objective is to develop children's innate potential to the greatest extent possible. We concentrate on children 0-8 years because research findings have demonstrated that interventions in the early years of childhood are most effective in yielding lasting benefits to children and society.

BvLF has two main departments, Programme Development and Management (PDM) and Programme Documentation and Communication (PDC). The first could broadly be called the Foundation's grantmaking side, and the second draws on the experience of the early childhood community to inform policy and practice.

Sharing knowledge and know-how
The hundreds of projects that the Foundation has supported over the years represent a wealth of experience. The Foundation capitalises on these experiences by analysing them and distilling lessons learned. Through a publications programme, the knowledge and practical know-how generated in this way is made available to those concerned with early childhood development whether as practitioners, trainers, academics or policy/decision makers. This enables the Foundation to have a wider impact than is possible through grantmaking alone.
The Foundation also encourages the projects that it supports to document their experience. Documents, materials, publications and videos produced by projects are housed in the Foundation's Resource Centre.

From 1996 we are associated with BvLF on different projects.
The different projects are:

  • Balwadi [children's gardens]
  • Fountain of Youth
  • Community Media

Evangelischer Entwicklungsdienst e.V. (EED)

Church Development Service (EED)
With the establishment of the Church Development Service (EED), the German Protestant Churches demonstrate their social responsibility towards attaining development.

The EED's work is rooted in:

  • faith which testifies the world is God's creation
  • love which encounters its Lord particularly among the poor and deprived
  • hope which is drawn from the certainty of the coming Kingdom of God

On the initiative of the Evangelical Church in Germany (EKD), the established Protestant Churches as well as the Free Churches decided to found the EED during the second half of 1999 including also the Old Catholic Church, the Independent Evangelical Lutheran Church and the Association of Missions and Churches (EMW).

The EED creates and strengthens awareness among people in the churches, the general public and in politics, increasing the potential for advocacy against need, poverty, persecution and conflict and, in this way, contributes towards improving the political and economic pre-conditions for a more humane development. For the benefit of the poor and needy, the EED is involved in transforming society and championing their cause. In the face of the complex challenges ensuing from global structural changes, the EED shares the development philosophy of the ecumenical movement and is striving for justice, peace and the integrity of creation.

Within the EED, the areas of financial support, personnel support and secondment as well as professional consultancy have, for organisational reasons, been integrated into regional departments. Development related public relations work, lobbying and education as well as programme evaluation and enhancement are carried out in special departments.
The EED is sole partner of Service Overseas (DÜ) gGmbH (Limited Liability Company). Service Overseas, as an organisation, fulfils the preconditions necessary to facilitate the concluding of contracts for placing skilled personnel in accordance with the requirements of the German law governing the service of development workers (EhfG). Service Overseas' programmes are dealt with by EED staff.

With regard to funding, the Protestant Association for Co-operation in Development (EZE) remains the contracting party to the Federal Ministry for Economic Co-operation and Development (BMZ). The EZE General Assembly is closely linked to the EED Governing Board. Funds granted by BMZ are processed by EED staff.

The EED is also a member of the Association of German Development NGOs (VENRO) and the Association of WCC-related Development Organisations in Europe (APRODEV).

From 1987 we are associated with EZE now EED on different projects.
The different projects are:

  • Integrated Rural Development Programme
    • Land Lease
    • Food Security
    • Income Generation
    • Housing
    • Networking and Campaign
    • Alternate Health System
    • Eco-Enterprises like Vermicompost and Neem Oil Expeller
    • Sangam Markets
    • Shelter for Distress women
    • Education
    • Community Media
    • Legal Resource Cell
