PROYDE has an active presence on 5 continents, and promotes numerous Development Projects.

Africa

The majority of our projects take place in Africa. PROYDE´s work is especially significant in Eritrea, where we were the pioneers for other Spanish NGOs, like Intermón, Manos Unidas, y Cáritas.

We also have a permanent and important presence in West Africa, in Togo, Benin, Côte d’Ivoire, Guinea-Conakry, Equatorial Guinea, and Burkina Faso.

We have also carried out projects in other African countries, including Ethiopia, Madagascar, Rwanda, Nigeria, Somalia, Kenya, Chad, Cameroon, Mozambique, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and South Africa.

America

The second continent, in both number of projects carried out and in economic resources employed, is America. While PROYDE’s presence here is widespread, much of our activity is located in Guatemala, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, the Dominican Republic, and Paraguay.

We have also carried out projects in Mexico, Ecuador, Panama, Cuba, Honduras, Nicaragua, Venezuela, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, and Chile.

Asia

Our work has been primarily focused in India, in the Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, and Gujarat states, and in Sri Lanka.

We have also carried out diverse projects in Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, and Pakistan. In the Middle East, we have worked in Lebanon.

Oceania

Finally, PROYDE has begun to work in Oceania. In 2010, we started our first project in Papua New Guinea.

Eastern Europe

PROYDE has carried out more than 1,100 development projects around the world. The majority of these projects are related to educational development, especially focused on supporting disadvantaged populations, including children, young people, and women.

The 10 countries in which PROYDE has carried out the most projects are as follows: Togo, Equatorial Guinea, Côte d’Ivoire, Eritrea, Burkina Faso, Guinea-Conakry, Guatemala, Peru, Bolivia, and India.

Most of PROYDE’s projects and programs relate to the education sector. In fact, from 2003-2004, 80% of our budget was allocated toward education projects, and only 1% went toward emergencies. The rest was dedicated to projects in agricultural development, food security, and infrastructure.

To illustrate the breadth of PROYDE’s work, from 2003-2004, PROYDE managed 93 projects in 30 countries, and in this same period, allocated 2,587,891.51 euros to its work.

PROYDE´s accounts are audited annually by an external auditing company and approved by the General Assembly. Furthermore, since 2003, PROYDE as a non-profit NGO has submitted itself to the Loyalty Foundation  audit on transparency, and has been named an accredited NGO by the organization.

From 1995 to 2004, PROYDE dedicated over 12 million euros to development projects.
