 Description:

We, the civil society organisations (CSOs), are occupying more and more spaces in the public sphere,gaining access to more financial and political resources, advocating for civil society and citizen activism, and increasingly influencing public policies and fostering social change. In other words,
we have more and more power. It is essential for us to use that power well, to be acceptable as institutions, to be justifiable to work on topics we claim to represent and are occupied with, to be clear, accountable and trustworthy to our beneficiaries (individuals, groups or organisations whether they are targeted or not, that directly or indirectly benefit from the CSO) with regard to our actions and the way we operate.
