 A Users' Guide to Civil Society Assessments 

 

Publisher: UNDP

Volume: 88 pages, pdf


Description:

Governments increasingly accept civil society organizations (CSOs) as policy interlocutors and intermediaries that promote civic participation and representation of minorities and disadvantaged groups in decision-making processes. The pivotal role of CSOs is recognized and emphasized in a number of international agreements today, such as, for example, the Paris Declaration and Accra Agenda for Action on Aid Effectiveness. But, at the same time, concerns are also raised – and not only by governments – about the accountability of CSOs and their ability to show results and demonstrate impact.
