Transparency
LFCA is proud to be an independent organisation.
For the past seven years we have been largely bootstrapped, and our work made possible through generous donors as well as memberships.
We are dedicated to full transparency via our annual reports and financial statements.
We have been proud members of the Transparent Civil Society Initiative. Signatories voluntarily commit to publishing specific information about their organisation on their website, including the statutes, data on the sources and use of funds, and personnel structure, among others (see below).
