Civil Society Advocacy

Civil Society Advocacy involves organized efforts by groups of citizens—such as non-governmental organizations, community organizations, or advocacy groups—to influence public policies and decisions. Their goal is to represent community interests, promote social change, or address issues like human rights, the environment, or education. Through activities like raising awareness, lobbying policymakers, and mobilizing communities, these groups work to ensure that government actions reflect the needs and voices of the people. Essentially, it’s a way for citizens to actively participate in shaping policies and holding authorities accountable.
