Working with local communities and stakeholders to ensure our projects align with local needs and priorities.

Supporting our participants with fundraising to secure funding for our projects.

Focusing on capacity building by providing training and education to local communities so they can develop and implement sustainable solutions themselves.

Leveraging technology and innovation to improve efficiency and increase the impact of our projects.

7. Monitoring and Evaluation
Establishing an evaluation system to track and assess the progress of our projects based on predefined indicators and targets.

Creating a platform to inform our stakeholders about activities and results.

Using feedback from stakeholders to continuously improve our approach and adapt it to changing circumstances and needs.

8. Organization and Governance
The Out of Area Foundation is governed by a Board of Directors, which oversees its activities and ensures compliance with the organization's mission and values.

The Director is responsible for the day-to-day management of the organization and the implementation of established policies and strategies.

The Project Leaders volunteer their time and expertise to support the organization's mission.

The organization's finances are managed according to strict guidelines and procedures, with regular auditing and reporting to ensure transparency and accountability.

​
9. Communication and Information
We use various communication channels and resources, including social media and our website.

10. Allocation of the liquidation balance
The allocation of the liquidation balance is the Dutch Cancer Society.
One in three people in the Netherlands is diagnosed with cancer. We are increasingly able to cure the disease, but approximately 45,000 people still die from cancer each year. This makes it the number one cause of death in the Netherlands. The Dutch Cancer Society (KWF) is committed to combating cancer through scientific research, information, and support.
Therefore, if the Out of Area Foundation ever ceases to exist, we want to donate our liquidation balance to the Royal Dutch Cancer Society.
