Civil Society at Crossroads: shifts, challenges, options

The global synthesis report of the ‘Civil Society at a Crossroads’ initiative – a collective reflection process about the future of civil society around the world. The initiative is being undertaken by a consortium of civil society support organisations – PRIA, CDRA, PSO, INTRAC, EASUN, and ICD.

The report covers the trajectories and events in the 21st century that have brought civil society to a crossroads, the key questions that arise for the future of civil society, and responses to these from civil society actors across the globe. Emerging lessons and implications for civil society are also covered.

The consortium plans to continue to expand the process of critical reflection with practitioners in civil society, as well as with donors and policymakers.
