Other financial info
SNV finance's main priority is the realisation of growth in resource mobilisation while driving a reduced cost structure. The implementation of SNV's new SAPbyDesign programme supports the improved financial planning and reporting processes. Implementing the new ERP system was a milestone for the staff at the Head Office and for the finances teams in the country offices. With this programme, we have laid the foundation for more efficient financial planning and reporting processes. From 2017, our focus will be on the continuous improvement of these processes and internal controls. The implementation of SAPbyDesign has introduced more effective ICT controls and enable digital workflows at the Head Office and in the country offices.
In 2016, the Head Office finance team initiated a treasury transformation project that will run for 18-24 months. The objective of this project is to improve the management of financial risks, such as foreign exchange risks, liquidity risks, credit risks on banks and to rationalise and improve SNV's cash management systems by further centralising all treasury activities. Where possibile, incoming donor funds will be routed through the Netherlands to improve control of the funds.
In the next few years we will be placing more emphasis on improving the accounting support we provide our country offices. This will, in turn, improve the effectiveness of the support provided by the finance teams to their own country and project management teams. -

Other activities
At SNV, we need to convince global leaders of the need for inclusive change; generate and prove new solutions; address production, trade and governance; and build the capacities of those tasked with translating policies, rules and regulations into practical action we are determined to tackle the challenge.
Our work focuses on three sectors: Agriculture, Energy, and Water, Sanitation, & Hygiene (WASH). By continuing to focus on these interconnected areas and adapting and expanding our approach within them, we will reach more people in more countries and ensure that they have every opportunity to lift themselves out of poverty.
We believe that eradicating poverty is possible when local and national governments, the private sector, civil society and communities work together. Each has a role to play to bring about change, and SNV works to bring these often conflicting parties together.
SNV bridges the gap between theory and practice, between policy decisions and effective solutions at scale. We implement approaches that are tailored to local needs and we believe that countries and communities themselves should be the owners of change. With the proper knowledge and guidance, we know that they can implement and maintain their own sustainable solutions to end poverty.

The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
