Tenders are invited for Upp - Designing, Creation & Maintenance of an Online Platform for Civil Society Organizations
The emerging civil society of Iraq is composed of a wide variety of actors, facing significant obstacles, including a political environment unaccustomed to and skeptical of independent advocates. Civil Society Organizations (CSO-s) are the principal vehicle for civil society activity in Iraq. Thousands of CSOs currently operate, with varying levels of expertise, resources, and subject-matter focus. While some CSOs have developed a degree of sophistication and credibility in a particular field (e.g., human rights advocacy), many others lack clear direction. Throughout the civil society sector, there are persistent concerns and shared notions of what is needed for this crucial sector to thrive. Un Ponte Per has worked with CSOs and Civil Society actors in Iraq since 1991. In December 2019, Un Ponte Per, in partnership with Al-Mesallah, signed a contract with the European Union represented by the European Commission to implement a Civil Society Capacity Building Program “TATWEER” sponsored by the “Civil Society Organizations as actors of Governance and Development Work in the Field- initiative. The program is aimed at building upon the potential of Iraqi Civil Society Organizations with a strong focus on capacity building, advocacy and networking. The purpose of this grant is to build upon the potential of Iraqi CSOs in becoming promoters of change and act as mediators and facilitators of dialogue on development policies, human rights and measurements between the Iraqi population at large and institutions.
