About Us, the Project and the Partner

Cuso International

Cuso International is an international cooperation and development organization that works to create economic and social opportunities for marginalized groups. Together with our partners, we are focused on efforts to advance gender equality and social inclusion, improve economic resilience, and deliver progress on climate action. We believe that by sharing skills, we can build better futures. Founded in 1961, Cuso International works in Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, and Canada.

We seek individuals who share our values and are committed to supporting marginalized groups, including those from the LGBTQIA+ communities.

Project - Sharing Canadian Expertise for Inclusive Development and Gender Equality (SHARE)

Cuso International will deliver the Sharing Canadian Expertise for Inclusive Development and Gender Equality (SHARE) project, with a contribution from Global Affairs Canada (GAC) over seven years (2020-2027). SHARE aims to improve the economic and/or social well-being of the poorest, most marginalized and vulnerable people, particularly women and girls, in developing countries, with a view to contributing to the Sustainable Development Goals. In addition to increasing the engagement of Canadians in international development and key global issues, this project will aim to increase the performance of country partners to deliver more inclusive, innovative and environmentally sustainable development initiatives that advance gender equality, in support of the action areas of Canada’s Feminist International Assistance Policy.

Partner - Asociación Nacional de Industriales (ANDI)

The National Association of Industrialists of Honduras (ANDI) was founded on 1958 in Tegucigalpa thanks to the initiative of a group of entrepreneurs and emerged as a response of the industrial sector to the establishment of unions that after the strike of 1954 and during the regime of Ramón Villeda Morales had become very strong.

As a non-profit organization with a nationwide scope, ANDI's mission is to advocate for and assist companies within the industrial sector, safeguard their rights, and address challenges that may hinder their growth. Their primary focus lies in fortifying the sector by presenting initiatives, facilitating management, and delivering industrial development services. The institution prides itself on being a robust, collaborative, and ethical entity. ANDI is renowned for its leadership in enhancing competitiveness and making a significant contribution to Honduras' sustainable and comprehensive development.
