Governance
Clear oversight, decision rights, conflicts management, and responsible leadership.
Transparency and accountability
Trust is built in the open
CDG governance, policies, reports, and legal disclosures will be published after verification.
Our standard
Trust grows when responsibility is clear
CDG connects governance, financial stewardship, safeguarding, privacy, feedback, and evidence as parts of one accountability system.
Documents are published only when they are current, approved, safe for public use, and presented with enough context to be understood.
Accountability designed into the work
Six connected duties
Accountability across the whole organization
Financial stewardship
Documented approvals, separated duties, reconciled records, and accountable fund use.
Safeguarding and ethics
Accessible reporting routes, protected handling, escalation, and learning from concerns.
Privacy and consent
Purpose-limited information, careful access, respectful storytelling, and safe publication.
Evidence and learning
Defined indicators, reviewed sources, documented corrections, and honest interpretation.
Feedback
Practical ways for communities, partners, supporters, and staff to ask and challenge.
Accessible routes matter
