Civic Education, Citizen Participation and Public Accountability

Support activities that advance citizen engagement to hold governments accountable and to participate actively in economic, political, governing and other critical processes aimed at creating more peaceful, democratic, and pluralistic societies.

Promote citizen engagement in local decision-making processes, such as through participatory budgeting processes and public-private dialog for economic development priorities.

Examples of other activities include, supporting CSO and citizen advocacy efforts; backing citizen monitoring and oversight initiatives; and strengthening citizen engagement in service delivery.
