The international development community strongly supports LEDCO. There have been two volunteer engineers from the Canadian Centre for International Studies and Cooperation (CECI) providing expertise in project management and hydrology. A third volunteer, an alternate energy specialist from Canada, spearheaded the Community Based Integrated Energy Planning exercise for two villages with funding from the Canadian Cooperation Office and the WECS Institutional Development Project (WIDP) funded by the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA). A fourth volunteer from Canada with 15 years experience in hydropower worked on the feasibility study of the grid-connected micro hydro project in Syange.

LEDCO is currently collaborating with CECIs' Community Based Economic Development Project (CBED) and a volunteer from Australian Volunteers International (AVI) was made available to provide technical and managerial support to 3 communities in Jumla district developing micro hydro schemes, as well as developing LEDCO's own Track 2.

The Energy House (E&Co), an American foundation, has provided an equity investment within LEDCO to enable a feasibility study of Nyadi Hydropower scheme.
