Fons Pitiús de Cooperació

The Ibiza and Formentera Fund for Cooperation was created in late October 1999 with the intention of coordinating the efforts of all the institutions in the islands of Ibiza and Formentera, aimed at the opening of awareness ways and taking up concrete cooperation projects with impoverished countries, collaborating with NGO's.

Among the main actions to be done stand out:

a) To introduce the Fund's work to the institutions and the society of Ibiza and Formentera, so that they take part in all its activities.

b) To make that all public institutions and private bodies of the two islands get involved in development cooperation tasks and earmark a minimum 0.7% of their respective budgets to these projects.

c) To consolidate the activities to be carried out by the three work areas of the Fund: project financing, ability to respond in emergency situations, and awareness.

The Ibiza and Formentera Fund has 16 members, of which 3 are town councils, which means that 50% of towns of the islands are present in the Fund. The Government of the Balearic Islands and the Ibiza and Formentera Insular Council have been members of the Fund since its foundation.
