Programme
Civic education, voter participation, election observation and accountability so communities can engage institutions and hold service providers to account.
Approach
Communities help define problems, design solutions, implement and monitor results.
Founded to remove barriers to youth and women's participation in decision-making — and still central to everything we do.
Transparent, accountable and inclusive systems, with communities engaging constructively with the institutions that serve them.
Displacement, climate change and poverty are too complex for any one organisation to solve alone.
We build local capacity so gains last beyond individual project cycles.
