Description
The Civil Society Strengthening Program (CSSP) aims to strengthen the capacity of Haitian civil society organizations (CSOs) to develop, implement, and monitor their advocacy and service-delivery activities. The program seeks to improve advocacy for democratic social change, development, and rights on behalf of Haitian citizens and improve fundamental living conditions by fostering respect for human rights and access to basic services. The program has three objectives: strengthening the advocacy, managerial, financial, and administrative capacities of CSOs; building comprehensive, efficient, and effective networks of CSOs at the national and grassroots level; and supporting productive working relationships between CSOs and development actors. Key activities include providing technical assistance, training, and funding to CSOs to strengthen their capacity, and promoting partnerships between CSOs and other development actors.
