International Community Linking Programme Survey
20 November 2009
Do your volunteers have a community link with a developing country?
Is there a community group in your area with an overseas link that would benefit from funding and support?
Would you like to help shape a brand new DFID programme?
DFID's new Community Linking Programme will offer funding, support and learning opportunities to community groups that are linked with a community group in a developing country.
VSO are carrying out a baseline survey to map linking activities across the UK and to identify future programme support, and would like as many local groups as possible to be involved in shaping this programme. The findings of the survey will be available to the public from February 2010.
The survey is only open for one more month so you can go straight to it by clicking

DFID Community Linking Programme (DCLP) is funded by DFID and delivered by a consortium of the British Council, VSO, Institute for Community Cohesion, and Interfaith Network.
