Red Argentina para la Cooperación Internacional

What Red Argentina para la Cooperación Internacional does

Red Argentina para la Cooperación Internacional (RACI) is a non-profit federation of Civil Society Organizations (Organizaciones de la Sociedad Civil, OSCs) headquartered in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with a secondary office in Toronto, Canada. Founded in 2000, the organization functions as a coordination and capacity-building hub for Argentine OSCs, connecting them with international cooperation funding, government, academia, and private sector partners. RACI maintains a multi-tier membership structure comprising Full Members (Miembros Plenos), Allied Partners (Socios Aliados), and volunteers, and distributes 700+ funding opportunities per year to its network.

RACI's core digital products include the Plataforma ODS (a Sustainable Development Goals information portal at plataforma-ods.org), the Directorio de OSC (an online directory of Argentine civil society organizations at directoriodeosc.org.ar), and the Herramienta de Autoconocimiento (a PDF-based self-assessment diagnostic for OSCs). The organization also co-runs the Premio a la Inclusión Social with BBVA Argentina, now in its fifth edition. Revenue is generated through three streams: recurring membership fees from Full Members and Allied Partners, international cooperation funding from embassies and development agencies, and private donations channeled through donaronline.org. Cumulative flows toward OSCs since founding exceed USD 2.7 million, and the organization has hosted 80+ interns and volunteers over its history.

RACI operates a community-led go-to-market model relying on content marketing via its bilingual website, events including International Civil Society Week and CIVICUS forums, annual membership campaigns, and co-published research with partners such as CAF. Active partnerships in 2025-2026 span embassies of Canada and New Zealand, multilateral organizations (WINGS, CARI, FLACSO, OEI, IRI), and corporate actors (BBVA, EY Argentina, CAF). The organization is currently developing a 2025-2030 Strategic Plan with support from the International Republican Institute. Leadership comprises Guillermo Correa as Director Ejecutivo and Florencia Ruiz Morosini as Presidenta del Comité Ejecutivo.

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Charities Aid Foundation (CAF): International charity assistance and philanthropy infrastructure organization. RACI has co-published research with CAF and shares a mission of channeling funds to civil society — comparable in function but global in scope.
• Grupo de Fundaciones (Argentina): Argentine network of corporate and family foundations. Operates in the same country and adjacent space (foundation and grantmaker coordination), making it a domestic peer for RACI's member convening and sector-research work.
• Centro Mexicano para la Filantropía (CEMEFI): Mexican civil society support organization that strengthens philanthropic capacity and OSC ecosystems. Directly comparable to RACI as a national federation providing training, research, and advocacy for civil society organizations in Latin America.
• WINGS (World Initiatives for Grantmaking Support): Global network of philanthropy support organizations that RACI recently joined. Operates as a peer federation connecting national civil society infrastructure bodies, making it the closest international counterpart to RACI's model.

Broad incumbents

• International Center for Not-for-Profit Law (ICNL): Global organization working on the legal and regulatory environment for civil society. Comparable to RACI in advocacy and research around enabling conditions for OSCs, especially relevant given Argentina's evolving lobbying regulations.
• Inter-American Foundation (IAF): US government agency funding grassroots civil society in Latin America. Comparable because of its focus on channeling international cooperation to community-based OSCs across the region, overlapping directly with RACI's funding-routing function.
• CIVICUS: Global civil society alliance that RACI engages with at international forums. Operates at a larger, multi-regional scale with similar functions (advocacy, research, civil society strengthening) but as a broad incumbent rather than a national federation.

Regional players

• Asociación Latinoamericana de Organizaciones de Promoción (ALOP): Latin American association of development promotion organizations. Comparable as a regional network coordinating civil society actors across multiple LATAM countries, paralleling RACI's cross-sector convening model.
• Asociación de Fundaciones Familiares y Empresariales (AFE): Latin American association of family and corporate foundations active in countries including Colombia and the broader region. Comparable as a peer federation model for philanthropic and civil society infrastructure in LATAM.
• ABRINQ Foundation (Fundação Abrinq): Brazilian civil society organization focused on child rights and OSC strengthening. Comparable as a regional LATAM peer working on civil society capacity-building and advocacy, though concentrated in Brazil.
