What Solidaridad Internacional- Nazioarteko Elkartasuna does

Solidaridad Internacional - Nazioarteko Elkartasuna is a private non-profit association (asociación privada sin fines lucrativos) founded in 1989 and headquartered at C/ Conde Mirasol 7 bajo, Bilbao, Spain. Operating as an Organización No Gubernamental de Desarrollo (ONGD), its mission is the eradication of poverty through a feminist lens addressing economic, religious, cultural, and environmental causes, alongside the extension of freedom and equality of rights worldwide. The organization implements development programs, humanitarian aid, and education for global citizenship in 15+ countries across Latin America (Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Haiti, Mexico, Nicaragua, Peru), Africa (Guinea Ecuatorial, Guinea Conakry, Mauritania, Senegal), and the Middle East (Lebanon, Palestine), executed jointly through a network of 25+ local civil society partner organizations.

Its service portfolio comprises educational programs (online courses via cursos.sol-inter.org on topics such as new masculinities and interculturality), cultural initiatives (MEP digital magazine, CREA África portal, Ciclo de Cine Africano, interactive SDGs map), advocacy campaigns ("Otra Piedra en el Camino," "Los Derechos Humanos no tienen fronteras"), and direct community development programs (water and sanitation, food sovereignty, women's empowerment). The underlying technology is a conventional web-based platform with course management, email newsletters, and interactive educational content — no proprietary technology, APIs, or AI capabilities were disclosed.

The business model is grant-funded: primary revenue derives from institutional public-sector funding through Basque development cooperation agencies (eLankidetza/AVCD, three Diputaciones Forales, major city halls including Bilbao, Vitoria-Gasteiz, and Donostia/San Sebastian) and the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID). Secondary revenue comes from individual membership fees, donations, and volunteering. The organization employs 17 staff and operates free-of-charge to beneficiaries, with all products and services funded through institutional grants rather than commercial pricing.
