State of Civil Society Reports
The State of Civil Society Report is a CIVICUS flagship annual publication. Each year, the report provides a wide array of insights into the key trends affecting civil society organisations (CSOs) and citizen movements. It offers a unique perspective on the challenges faced by civil society and citizen activists.
People Power Under Attack and Civic Space Reports
The annual report, People Power Under Attack, rates the state of civic space conditions based on data collected throughout the year from country-focused civil society organisations, regionally-based research teams, international human rights indices and the CIVICUS Monitor's in-house experts. The data from these four separate sources are then combined to assign each country and territory a rating as either open, narrowed, obstructed, repressed or closed.

Annual Reports
We take bold action in the face of serious and widespread challenges facing humanity.
In our work, we strengthen citizen action and society by building solidarity and networking among civil society, producing timely and world-class insights, advocating for open spaces and systemic change, amplifying voices of those usually not included, and promoting resourcing for a diverse and resilient civil society.
