Our Core Values

Commitment: Those we serve come first in everything we do. We champion the realization of their full potential to lead fulfilling lives and contribute meaningfully to society.
Results orientation: We are driven by the changes and impacts we exist to create. We are committed to providing timely and high-quality solutions and services.
Open communication: We believe in granting access to information. We value and use the best approaches to communicate amongst ourselves and with others. We support all stakeholders to understand and express themselves in relation to their wellbeing and provide input in our service delivery
Competence: We are committed to acquire, develop and retain the highest possible quality personnel as a basis of assuring the best organizational performance and standards.

Areas of intervention

SCC is implementing software and hardware programs in the areas of WASH, Protection, GBV, food security, conflict resolution and peacebuilding, and Education.

Our local and international partners, with whom we have created real sustainable work; our workers, local and expatriates, who often cooperate with us for decades; the final beneficiaries of the interventions; local and international authorities; friends and supporters.

Over the years we have developed projects in a whole range of sectors: such as Health care and Nutrition, Vocational Training, Primary Education, Protection, and Environmental Sustainability, WASH programs for IDPs and poor hosting communities to increasingly complex and innovative projects – economic projects; support to small and medium organizations and Cooperatives; Capacity Building of institutions, both public and created by local civil society; protection of human rights; habitat and territory.

We also learned to deal with humanitarian aid and emergency (environmental and social) and with the security issues that these interventions require. We currently read development projects as opportunity and sustainable.

With conviction and pragmatism, we want to go beyond the logic of gift whenever the conditions of the communities we work with permit this approach: in Somalia and in the neighboring countries our partners ask for a real partnership. This means accepting with the courage to overturn our role.
