How Minka works

The Minka Peace and Resilience instrument finances projects before, during, and following crises.

Minka finances projects that meet the priority needs of its local partners, over a period of 3 to 5 years. These projects benefit from adapted, faster, and more flexible operating methods. Minka thus fits within the humanitarian-development-peace nexus, adopting a conflict-sensitive approach.
