Improving the capacity of local civil society organisations to respond to the needs of local populations

Following on from previous projects, TGH aims to support Burmese civil society organisations in the context of a triple crisis. The COVID-19 crisis, the conflict and the economic crisis that followed have led to an increase in the needs of the Burmese population. In this context, local CSOs are best placed to provide aid that is rapid and relevant to the needs identified, as they have better access to the ground than international NGOs. Strengthening their management and implementation capacities is therefore an effective response to the situation presented.

Building the capacity of local CSOs has always been at the heart of TGH's commitments.

In the course of this project, strengthening the intervention capacities of local CSOs and their networking will, in the long term, enable them to respond better to the needs of civil society organisations and to harmonise and share good practice between the beneficiary Burmese CSOs, enabling them to operate autonomously. As part of the project, local CSOs will be supported in the direct implementation of a micro-project.
