DEEEP is back on track!

Discover “Developing Europeans' Engagement for Eradication of global Poverty”, the third phase of DEEEP!

The Development Education Exchange in Europe Project (DEEEP) has finished its 3 years activities on September 14, 2009 and leaves now the floor to the new project “Developing Europeans’ Engagement for Eradication of global Poverty”, also known as DEEEP 3! Its overall aim is to “empower citizens, politicians, media, businesses, social players to actively assume their responsibility towards global development and the Millenium Development Goals (MDG) agenda”.

DEEEP 3 will be run by a consortium of 5 European NGOs, namely PLAN Finland (lead NGO), UCODEP, ITECO, DEA (the 3 NGOs have been involved in both DEEEP 1 and DEEEP 2) and as a new partner the Hungarian NGDO platform HAND. DEEEP 3 activities will officially start on the 1st of October 2009, and last until September 30, 2012. The project was jointly drafted by all the members of CONCORD Development Education Forum.

To learn more on DEEEP 3 activities, you can contact the new co-ordinator Cinthia Alaerts (c.alaerts@deeep.org), the Advocacy Officer Tobias Troll (t.troll@deeep.org), and the Information Officer Chiara Tripepi (c.tripepi@deeep.org). You can also visit http://www.deeep.org/
