Our Philosophy

Why Share Resources Freely?

The development sector is strongest when knowledge flows freely — this library is built on the belief that when consultants, practitioners, and organisations share what works, everyone spends less time reinventing the wheel and more time creating impact and delivering better outcomes.

Why Use This Platform

Important documents are often needed before an organization can move forward with a request, partnership, or internal process. But not every team has the time, tools, or prior examples to create them from the beginning.

This platform helps close that gap by making useful resources available for organizations to use and adapt.

The goal is simple: reduce duplicated effort, improve quality, and make practical resources easier to access.

What You Can Do

Green Guava Resources is designed to help organizations find practical materials, adapt them to their own context, and share useful resources with others.

  • Search by need or topic - Find resources related to governance, HR, safeguarding, finance, compliance, operations, and more.
  • Use resources as a starting point - Save time by adapting existing materials instead of starting from a blank page.
  • Build a shared resource base - Help strengthen the sector by contributing useful resources from your own work.

The Process

How it works

From requirement to contribution — leverage existing knowledge and strengthen it through shared experience

Step 1 — Find the Resource fits your Requirement

Identify what is being requested, then search for a relevant resource to use as a starting point.

Step 2 — Adapt to Your Context

Adjust the document to reflect your organization’s structure, language, priorities, and requirements.

Step 3 — Deliver and Contribute

Use the adapted resource for your work, and share useful documents, tools, or approaches that may help others.
