Open Forum Outreach Toolkit

vendredi 5 février 2010, par CSO-Effectiveness

This toolkit gives you a comprehensive overview of the process and explains the most important concepts underpinning the debate on CSO development effectiveness.

How can it be used ?

• To provide essential background information : Sections 1 and 2 provide essential background information on the Open Forum for CSO Development Effectiveness and the consultation process, including information on parallel donor-led processes and other CSO-focused initiatives. These sections are primarily aimed at participants in consultations, but should also underpin the work of organisers and facilitators of consultations.

• To inform and guide the discussion : Section 3 provides an exploration of key issues in CSO development effectiveness and asks some fundamental questions in order to stimulate and guide the discussion.

• To set up, structure, run and record consultation workshops : Section 4 is primarily directed at consultation organisers and facilitators, mostly from national CSO platforms and networks. It includes useful ideas, recommendations and tools to assist them in setting up, structuring, running and recording the outcomes of national consultation workshops. A template for recording the outcomes of consultation workshops is also provided.
