The Executive Director of HIVOS, Tunggal Pawestri, said that since its creation eight years ago, HIVOS has been strengthening its collaboration with many NGOs and the government to strengthen Timor-Leste society.

“We contribute to strengthening our society through inclusion. That’s why we collaborate with many different NGOs and the government, sharing our experience in Multi-Capacity Development to help our organizations grow,” she said.

“Through this festival, we inspire communities and organizations to promote meaningful collaborative action to solve common problems,” Pawestri added.
