In July 2021, DAC donors unanimously adopted a Recommendation on Enabling Civil Society in Development Co-operation and Humanitarian Assistance, their first-ever international legal policy instrument on enabling civil society. The Recommendation identifies 28 key actions that donor governments should follow to respect, protect, and promote civic space. The DAC CSO Reference Group has established a Working Group on the Recommendation to monitor and advocate for its full and effective implementation. The Working Group provided input into a series of toolkits being developed by the DAC to promote effective change in donor policies and practices consistent with the Recommendation. Read more here.
