CIVICUS Better Communications and Planning Civil Society Toolkits
Based on requests from members, CIVICUS has produced a range of toolkits to enable
organisations to improve their capacity in a number of communication and planning areas. From learning how to write a funding proposal to developing more effective action planning skills, the toolkits provide many useful tips and ideas to help strengthen organisations. CIVICUS Better Communications
and Planning Toolkits are available in English, French, Spanish (Español) and Russian, Portuguese and Arabic in MS Word and PDF formats. CIVICUS’ toolkits have fast become a popular resource within civil society used by a greater number of active citizens every day. Currently, the toolkits are
downloaded more than 135,000 times per month!
To add to the value of the CIVICUS toolkits, a collection of other civil society capacity building toolkits and resources produced by other organisations are listed beneath as well. These are available free of charge unless otherwise noted.
