Nordic International Support Foundation (NIS)

The Nordic International Support Foundation (NIS) implements a large range of projects together with donors and key national stakeholders to assist countries and communities to successfully emerge from conflict
Escaping conflict requires a broad mix of activities targeting peacebuilding, state building, reconciliation processes and community recovery efforts
As a result, NIS believes there are multiple ways to support communities and institutions in transitioning away from conflict
Our projects include constructing, rehabilitating and installing economic and community infrastructure such as solar streetlights, stadiums and markets, roads, government buildings, solar electrification to hospitals, health clinics and government buildings
In addition, NIS works with creating vocational training facilities and curricula, managing secondees to government institutions and managing grant-making programmes supporting peace-building and social cohesion
For NIS, the exact nature of a project is secondary to its ability to help a country emerge from conflict.
