Projects
Discover approved or developing locally owned projects where donors, institutions and impact-focused partners can support defined community needs, ecosystem priorities and measurable results.
Needs before funding
MDF prioritizes locally owned projects: communities and local institutions identify needs, participate in design, help define results and remain central to implementation and accountability.
Clear scope and results
Each project should connect a local need with responsible ownership, activities, budget, KPIs, evidence, safeguards and reporting expectations.
Support where your priorities align
Donors can discuss support for an approved project, site, community need, programme result or multi-year pathway rather than providing funding without a defined accountability structure.
Follow the money and results
Authorized partners can receive agreed project, budget, activity, report, meeting and verification information through the MDF Partner & Impact Portal.
Funding should strengthen local ownership, not replace it.
MDF’s intended model connects community-defined needs, approved project design, responsible local participation, controlled funding, measurable KPIs, evidence, reporting and appropriate verification. Donors and impact-focused partners support the pathway; communities remain central to the outcome.
Local impact grows through long-term relationships.
