Co-creating Knowledge

We analyse the latest trends and co-create knowledge with partners. We highlight stories of civic action and civil society breakthroughs and discuss challenges. Our flagship projects include the CIVCUS Monitor, tracking the global civic space in 198 countries, and the CIVICUS lens, providing up-to-date analysis of major events and civil society perspectives.

Advocating for Change

We coordinate and sustain targeted advocacy for civic and democratic space. We are strengthening civic action for greater impact across borders and at larger scales.

We influence decision-making processes and hold public and private institutions accountable.

Enabling and Resourcing

Around the world, civil society's resilience is threatened by shrinking spaces and growing power imbalances, limiting their ability to act and access resources. 

To counter this, we leverage our networks and visibility to secure better resources for citizen action. CIVICUS sustains progressive actors in the Global South and enhances resource access for smaller organisations.

Building Networks

CIVICUS builds and enhances civil society networks so that we can come together and influence for greater civic and democratic freedoms.

We strengthen the power of people to organise, mobilise and take action. Forging alliances with groups that are most affected by discrimination is a crucial part of our work.
