How we work
The main objective of Fundación Corona is to contribute in the promotion
of equity and decreasing poverty in Colombia. To be able to meet this
goal, Fundación Corona focuses on four areas considered fundamental:
health,
education,
local and community development and
entrepreneurial
development.
Four specific work strategies are applied to these areas:
Development of management models useful to social organizations
and groups, such as schools, hospitals, micro-enterprises and
community organizations with the objective of working more
efficiently (organizational effectiveness).
Development of knowledge in specific sectors and promotion of
public debate in topics of interest in order to improve the design
and development of public policies.
Promotion of citizenship participation to allow community
problem solving and stimulate the follow up and control of local
governments,
Development of programs for the generation of job and income
opportunities for the vulnerable population.
The Foundation works in establishing alliances that increase the
effectiveness, sustainability and availability of resources for its
initiatives. It supports programs and projects that offer innovation in
problem solving and the development of new knowledge. Finally, it
concentrates in those initiatives that demonstrate a greater possibility
of being effective and that generate a systematic and long-term impact.
