The purpose of Alliance2015 is to fight poverty more effectively by cooperating on various levels, working together in developing countries as well as on campaigns to influence public and political opinion in Europe. By joining forces, we can meet the challenges and changing demands of donors. Alliance2015 continues to work towards reaching the Millennium Development Goals.

In 2010, the first Alliance2015 offices opened in Managua/Nicaragua and La Paz/Bolivia shared by all members working in those countries. Latin America is the first continent where Alliance2015 members (Hivos and IBIS) successfully implement joint projects as Global Fund recipients. In Asia, the emphasis of the collaboration on emergency aid has forged particularly strong links among the partners. This is due to the high incidence of catastrophes, especially the 2010 floods in Pakistan. In Africa, the partnership has a strong focus on education in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Uganda. In 2011, there was a focus on the delivery of emergency aid due to the scale of the crisis in the Horn of Africa.

In Europe, Alliance2015 has been successfully campaigning and focusing on advocacy work, for example with the EU-funded Stop Child Labour campaign that has been running since 2003, or in the field of aid effectiveness.  In 2012, the EU approved two additional projects: an advocacy programme on a structured dialogue between NGOs and the EU on MDGs 1 and 2 and a new hunger awareness campaign called Food Right Now!
