Soros Foundations
The Open Society Institute (OSI), a
private
operating and grant making foundation, aims to shape public policy to
promote democratic governance, human rights, and economic, legal, and
social reform. Soros foundations are autonomous institutions
established in particular countries or regions to initiate and support
open society activities.
Several Soros Foundations have
supported
core Ungana-Afrika operations or specific projects, and the Open
Society Initiative for Southern Africa (OSISA) has provided core
support from the start of Ungana-Afrika. OSISA's current operational
support lasts until the end of 2009.

Finnish Government
Finland has a wide bilateral
development
co-operation program with South Africa. SMME-development, education-
and environmental sectors have been defined as core areas for the
bilateral co-operation. NGO's promoting democracy and human rights are
supported by the embassy administered Local Co-operation Fund.
Ungana-Afrika has received financial
support
from the co-operation fund in South Africa for a number of ICT capacity
building and consulting projects since early 2004. In addition,
Ungana-Afrika has been working closely with the embassy of Finland in
