Civil Society Organizations

We support Local Civil Society Organizations CSOs and Implementing Partners (IPs) to consolidate and strengthen their local and national role as responsive and effective implementers of relief, humanitarian and development assistance that leverage their local presence and human resources to become sustainable actors within their communities. Often, overstretched CSOs and Implementing Partners (IPs) are bearing the burden of program implementation in the relief, humanitarian and development sector, while receiving varying technical support to strengthen core organizational structures, systems and policies beyond the need of any particular donor/partner project. For CSOs and IPs to become self-sufficient and sustainable organizations, able to engage direct funding from donors and improve efficiencies and accountability, it is necessary to provide targeted support for their long-term organizational development. We support CSOs and IPs staff with relevant, dedicated and strategic organisational development support, training and integration into local, regional and global peer support networks that increases their long-term sustainability. We guide them through an on-site, collaborative organizational capacity assessment to self-identify areas for organizational development. Our partners and clients are provided with the tools, training and mentoring support to develop the systems, functions and policies which form the foundations of the organizations. Throughout the program, each CSO and IP are provided with ongoing mentoring support and be integrated into a local, regional and global community of practices to build peer support structures and develop local capacity.

Humanitarian Response and Coordination

The i-APS team of experts can assist the client before, during and after a humanitarian response, whether for a natural disaster, a famine or a civil armed conflict.

We can help prepare for a natural disaster through, for example training of staff and improved planning. Our teams are on stand-by to deploy to emergency situations to manage the response across a range of sectors; and our staff can support the recov-ery response strategy as well.
