Partners & Donors

At ADG International we are focused on HR development in the scope of financial systems and cooperatives. To diversify this expertise and to generate synergy effects, we have established long-standing strategic partnerships to cover the diverse fields of expertise many international projects require.


Alliances and strategic relations

What does strategic partnership mean to us? Working jointly with a complementary partner on a constant basis and developing common long-term strategies instead of setting up new consortiums on a single-projects basis. Depending on the project scope, we work in close cooperation either with partners from the cooperative sector, or with an internationally well-established consultancy.

Cooperative partners

We have close relationships with several institutions. However, most cooperative activities are realized with the following two organizations:

Along with the German Cooperative and Raiffeisen Confederation (DGRV), we work in Africa and Latin America assisting the cooperative sector of the respective countries. While DGRV focuses among other issues on regulation, audit and further association tasks, ADG covers anything related to HR development.

The International Confederation of Popular Banks (CIBP), an alliance of cooperative central banks worldwide, works together with ADG providing HR development services for CIBP members. This cooperation has led to the development of an international leadership program for higher management of cooperative central banks called LINK which has been in place since 2007.
