THE HUMAN SAFETY NET 5

We believe that, whatever happens in life, no one should be held back from reaching their potential.

The Human Safety Net is a global movement of people helping people. Our mission is to unlock the potential of people living in vulnerable circumstances, so that they can transform the lives of their families and communities.

The Human Safety Net programmes support families with young children and integrate refugees through work. To do so, we bring together the strengths of non-profit organizations and the private sector, in Europe, Asia and South America.

We are an open net and we welcome working with companies, organizations and foundations who share the same goals.

A Foundation Initiated By Generali

The engine driving The Human Safety Net is a Foundation initiated in 2017 by Generali, one of the world’s largest insurers. It extends Generali’s purpose of “enabling people to shape a safer future by caring for their lives and dreams” to the most vulnerable in our society. Generali is mobilizing their people and resources – financial support, time, skills, networks, assets, products – to reach more people and amplify the impact of The Human Safety Net.

The Foundation acts as a competence center on programmes and provides an additional source of funding to countries where The Human Safety Net is active. It assesses partners through a robust selection and due diligence process, coordinates programme design and implementation, monitors progress and shares lessons learned as part of a global Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning system.

All our programmes depend on a strong, eyelevel partnership between The Human Safety Net’s NGO partners and Generali business units active within the same communities. This is how we believe we can add the greatest value to our partners and have a greater impact on our beneficiaries.
