In recognition of the increasingly prominent role global civil society networks play in promoting citizen action, addressing common challenges and sector-wide issues and providing opportunities for joint advocacy and campaigning, knowledge sharing and peer learning for civil society organisations, in 2006 CIVICUS introduced the Civil Society Networks (CSN) programme. The International Advocacy Non-Governmental Organisations Workshop International advocacy NGOs and networks (IANGOs) are focused on influencing the policies and actions of major players in the trans-national arena: governments, multinational corporations, intergovernmental organisations and other actors that shape responses to trans-national issues. Four years ago, several IANGO leaders began a conversation with CIVICUS and the Hauser Center about creating a space for collective reflection, personal learning and strategic thinking that would enable individual and collective action on common challenges and opportunities. Out of those conversations, an experiment was born—the IANGO Workshop.

As a global alliance of civil society organisations, whose mission focuses on the promotion of civil society and citizen action, CIVICUS was designated to operate a small Secretariat for the Accountability Charter. Today, more than sixty international NGO signed the International NGOs Accountability Charter. Read the Charter |
