PRIORITIES

Dialogue and coordination respecting administrative mandates and cooperation terms.

Referrals to services within their authorisation, decisions and terms.

Tool design, interoperability, continuity and data control under clear contracts.

Funders and development organisations support capacity building, programmes and outcomes for artisans under agreed commitments.
A CLEAR PATHWAY

Start with a real problem and a useful service, not just mutual publicity.
Define responsibilities, permissions, resources and exit conditions.
Agree on work stages, responsibilities and arrangements for monitoring cooperation.

COMPLEMENTARITY · CONTINUITY
The cooperation framework should set responsibilities, deliverables, permissions, information-sharing terms and service continuity.
Rights to tools and content, backups and exit arrangements must be clarified before sensitive exchanges or development. Each party’s rights and powers are preserved.
Clear cooperation connects goals, resources, contributions and monitoring of results.
