Background

The International Civil Society Centre’s Innovation Report series started in 2019 showcases innovative responses from a range of civil society organisations, across geographies and area of expertise. The publication provides an opportunity for organisations to benefit more from the lessons others have learned, or are in the process of addressing, particularly in the context of complex common external challenges.

Our 2024 Innovation Report, produced in partnership with Partos will document approaches that foster novelty and creativity in shifting the power that are locally driven and supported by local innovation eco-systems across geographies. It will seek to highlight underrepresented voices in the international civil society sector.
