Maein

The Maein Center for Humanitarian and Development

Excellence” initiative was established to make humanitarian response “local

as much as possible and international as necessary.” The primary goal of

the initiative is to enrich the humanitarian and development work

environment with a mechanism that enables donors and international

organizations to implement their commitments under the Grand Bargain of

Localization, as this mechanism provides local partners with the capabilities

and skills to make an effective contribution to achieving sustainable

development in full harmony with donor compliance requirements and the

interests and rights of beneficiaries.
