MAA believes in developing and supporting programs that will be sustained in a long term and as per needs of local communities. One key option that we often promote is to develop a strong institutional capability of our local partners and beneficiaries and gradually reduce the direct engagement of our staff in activities capable to be implemented by local communities. Another is the on-going building of a robust culture of openness, transparency and integrity in our financial management, in order to continue building the trust and confidence of our constituency, development partners and donors. MAA also strives to build a strong network and linkage with like-minded local partners working on similar objectives and where possible we have been carrying out joint programs to minimize unnecessary costs.
