Institute of Social Studies (Erasmus University of Rotterdam) - Stock-take on CSO Development Effectiveness and Enabling Environment (Global Partnership) - 2016

Project Description:

The Task Team on CSO Development Effectiveness and Enabling Environment (TT) had committed to implement Global Partnership Initiative 12 (GPI-12), as reflected in the Global Partnership for Effective Development Cooperation (GPEDC) Mexico Communiqué. The Indicator Two monitoring approach would ideally involve completion of a questionnaire, in a multi-stakeholder fashion, at country level.

The process was to be led by country government National Coordinators, with the participation of Focal points from different stakeholder groups. MKE was responsible to ensure the questionnaire contains four modules reflecting the CSO Enabling Environment Framework, inclusive of:

i) space for multi-stakeholder dialogue

ii) CSO development effectiveness

iii) official development cooperation with CSOs

iv) the legal and regulatory environment for CSOs.

For the GPEDC’s 2nd round monitoring report, findings from country monitoring would be complemented by desk studies.
