Local Government and Citizen Engagement Program

Purpose: To accompany citizens and communities to achieve their full human potential through creating, facilitating and fostering spaces for critical dialogue and change.

Why?

To activate, educate and mobilise citizens in order to become active co-participants in the creation and accomplishment of their own development agenda.

How?

• Hosting public dialogues around critical issues of governance, accountability, social and economic justice, and nation building
• Empowering and accompanying communities through capacity building workshops to support, capacitate and mentor those we work with
• Producing educational materials that can be distributed to communities to inform and educate them about critical issues of active citizenship
• Building partnerships with community radio stations in order to increase the reach of our educational programmes to remote and marginalised areas
