British Overseas NGOs for Development

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

British Overseas NGOs for Development (commonly called Bond) is the United Kingdom membership body for non-governmental organisations (NGOs) working in international development.[1] Established in 1993, Bond now has over 400 members. These range from large bodies with a worldwide presence to smaller, specialist organisations working in certain regions or with specific groups of people.

Bond is a registered charity under English law.[2]

Bond promotes, supports, represents and, on occasion, leads the work and interests of UK international development organisations.

Campaigns coordinated by Bond include #ProudOfAid,[3] , Make Poverty History and .

In 2021, as part of wider cuts to the UK aid budget, the funding for Bond from the FCDO was halved.[4]
