## **Annual report 6th April 2021 – 5 April 2022** ## **About maNGOma** maNGOma (mutual assistance for NGOs for mutual advantage) is a small UK based registered international development charity. Our aims are to - support carefully selected overseas NGOs with project design, business development, fundraising and evaluation to build their capacity and sustainability, and - foster knowledge exchange, by building networks of relevant UK and international NGOs to share their experience to help improve mutual effectiveness in meeting community need. We do not impose solutions, design or run international projects ourselves; we rely upon the local NGOs and their communities for that. Our role is to create project proposals to funders to help make the projects happen. We have a grants policy, but in order to grant aid the NGOs we have first to secure funding in partnership with them. We also seek grants and individual donations to help support our core activity. Our Board continues to be diverse in terms of age, gender, nationality and ethnicity, with a wide range of skills and experience in the fields of community project management, international development, charity business development, communication, monitoring and evaluation. Most of them also form our volunteer team. A major source of recruitment has been University of East Anglia (UEA) undergraduates, post graduates and alumni. We offer mentoring and coaching to help them develop their skills and roles. We have no paid staff or premises at present; our volunteers all work from home, some from overseas locations. ## **Report on activities** ## **International** This year has seen us work in partnership with the following NGOs - **CAMAAY:** based in Bamenda in Northwest Cameroon. The Region has been subject to conflict with a united front of separatists (Southern Cameroons Liberation Council) seeking and independent Ambazonian state. This has led to loss of livelihoods and population displacements to Bamenda. The projects (adapted with the emergence of Covid19) are to equip local schools which have become overstretched due to the new influx of children. - **Health & Water Foundation (HWF):** based in Kisii District in southwestern Kenya. Current projects include developing youth entrepreneurship, eco initiatives, Covid awareness-raising and improving hygiene and sanitation facilities at local schools to encourage girl attendance and educational achievement. 1 - **ZimConserve:** based in Chitungwiza, Harare Province Zimbabwe ZimConserve’s humanitarian work, this NGO aims to increase food security, alleviate poverty and the conservation of the natural environment and related health concerns with particular focus on the young and vulnerable members of the society, assisting marginalised communities to acquire skills to self-sustain grow and develop through training and practical demonstrations in permaculture and related fields. We are working on a project proposal regarding mushroom farming. - **Health and Gospel Mission** based in Kasese, Uganda this NGOs aims to improve the situation of vulnerable people in the area. We are working on proposals to funders for health education sessions on menstrual hygiene and reproductive health and help girls access reusable sanitary menstrual pads and expectant pregnant mothers with birthing/delivery kits. ## **Local activity** ## **Group representation** We have been represented on the following groups - Norwich Eco Hub – This Community Interest Company focuses on information sharing and bringing together the range of groups in Norfolk concerned with facets of environmental sustainability, relating to many of the Sustainable Development Goals. Eco Hub has begun running various public events in the Norwich area with the involvement of some of our Trustees - Aid Alliance - The Aid Alliance brings people and organisations together to defend the 0.7% aid spending commitment in the 2015 International Development Act. This includes lobbying MPs, raising awareness and working to change public perceptions on aid and development Some of our Trustees have been involved in the Aid Alliance campaign, including street stalls - Norfolk Global Neighbours - This is an informal group running as a local manifestation of the Aid Alliance to support their campaign and to highlight the Norfolk public’s contribution to overseas aid via individual donations and charitable activity. They reached an advance stage of planning a week-long exhibition at St Peter Mancroft Church in the centre of Norwich, to feature maNGOma, Aid Alliance and local overseas aid charities ## **Refugee Project** Courtesy of a grant from National Lottery Awards for All, we embarked upon a project to inform, encourage and support local asylum seekers and refugees to consider volunteering as an option to help improve community integration, self-confidence, language and other skills, and job prospects (where working is permitted). The gestation of this project is our recognition that these groups often face barriers to volunteering (e.g., low self-confidence, poor awareness of opportunities, discrimination) 2 The Project suffered from a slow start because of delays in being able to engage with the refugee groups due to Covid and the consequent restrictions. However, by yearend we had taken part in a number of engagement events in partnership with local support organisations Bridge Plus and New Routes. Also we had accrued a range of voluntary organisations who have been encouraged to recruit refugees from volunteer backgrounds, often for the first time. We have been able to work with the refugees to pave their way to join these groups. ## _SAWiseman_ Steve Wiseman Trustee maNGOma 3 |**MANGOMA**|||**1169841**|| |---|---|---|---|---| |**Receipts and payments accounts**||||**CC16a**| |**For the period**
