The CSI-RA is flexible in nature and allows each project partner to make an assessment of what they want to measure and which dimensions they wish to focus on, according to the particular context. The project partners will draw up the project goals, objectives and areas of focus. It will be the partner’s role, together with our assistance, to adapt and reformulate the CSI-RA indicators based on local realities and specificities.
Some of the possible areas of assessment include the following:
- The enabling environment for civil society
- Power relations within civil society
- The level of institutionalisation of civil society
- Civil society’s practice of values
- Perceptions of civil society impact
- Civil society resourcing
- Participation and activism
