Wisconsin Coordinating Council on Nicaragua

The Wisconsin Coordinating Council on Nicaragua (WCCN) is a nonprofit organization that works in partnership with Nicaraguans to promote social and economic justice through alternative models of development and activism. In the 1980s, WCCN was a leader in the US-Nicaragua "sister city" movement, which promoted people-to-people projects and locally-based "municipal foreign policies" by individual U.S. cities as an alternative to the militaristic foreign policy of the U.S. government under President Ronald Reagan.

Currently WCCN's main programs are the Women's Empowerment Project and the Nicaraguan Credit Alternatives Fund.
