The INGO Accountability Charter outlines its Member Organisations’ common commitment to excellence, transparency and accountability. To demonstrate and build on these commitments, we seek to:

  • identify and define shared principles, policies and practices;
  • enhance transparency and accountability, both internally and externally;
  • encourage communication with stakeholders; and
  • improve our performance and effectiveness as organisations.

Reporting Deadline

The next deadline for Charter Members to submit their annual accountability report is 2 April 2012. More information on the reporting requirements can be found here.

2012 AGM

The next Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the Charter Company will take place on 30 March 2012 in London. Find information here.

"The Charter is an important first step in demonstrating our accountability to our stakeholders. The reporting process provides an opportunity to evaluate our work and reaffirm our vision. It is a flexible accountability tool that we can confidently recommend to our partners and allies regardless of their size or structure."
