“ At CIVICUS, we know that the only way positive change really happens is when powerful changemakers are recognised, resourced and supported. Citizen action is evolving and we now see less formal civil society organisations (CSOs) and more people-led collective efforts moving quickly and fluidly to meet rising interconnected crises. They are not only acting as first responders during local emergencies, but are also the ones closest to the needs, demands and visions of their communities. Their undeniably critical work is driving positive change in very concrete ways: modifying unfair laws, encouraging policy change, holding duty bearers accountable, crafting solutions to some of our most vexing social problems and promoting peace, human rights and equality. “
