Safaricom, Vodacom and Vodafone Foundation have partnered on important new research investigating why local African Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) find it harder to access global donor aid.
The resulting report, ‘Barriers to African Civil Society: Building the Sector’s Capacity and Potential to Scale Up’ highlights multiple barriers preventing African CSOs from operating at the same scale and capacity as International led NGOs based in-country. It also makes some key recommendations for a framework of engagement among different stakeholders to strengthen local CSOs in Africa.
