Invitation to participate in a webinar
Date and time: Thursday 1 March 2012, 12:00 -14:00 GMT
Despite the existence of a vast body of national and international law guaranteeing the freedoms of association, assembly and expression, civil society organisations often find themselves impeded from carrying out their mandates.
In response to this, CIVICUS: World Alliance for Citizen Participation is organising a webinar on bridging the gaps: an enabling environment and civil society - government relations with the aims of:
• providing clarity on what an enabling environment entails
• sharing experiences of different forms of collaboration between civil society and government on policy making
• identifying the critical elements of an optimal working relationship between government and civil society
• initiating a process for creating a code of good practice for civil society –government relations.
Resource persons and participants: Representatives from national umbrella associations, CSOs, research institutes, participatory governance practitioners and CIVICUS staff.
