The African Development Bank Group is organizing a Civil Society Open day on Thursday 1st June 2023 in Kigali, Rwanda.
Rwandan civil society organizations will join the Bank to discuss the Bank Group's Country Strategy 2022-2026 and investment portfolio aimed at identifying opportunities for collaboration and interventions for the sustainable and inclusive development of Rwanda.
CSO Open day offers the opportunity to engage, exchange ideas and hold space for Civil Society Organizations in countries where we work. It is a mechanism to cooperate closely with all relevant stakeholders, including grassroots organizations, for an effective and comprehensive response to the development challenges at the country level.
It provides a forum for CSOs to provide feedback, learn about the Bank's objectives, and find synergies with like-minded organizations to achieve life-changing solutions for those we support.
CSOs play a pivotal role in raising the voices of poor and marginalized people, advocating for the work they do on the ground -- particularly in areas of fragile governance and post-conflict setting -- and, increasing public sector accountability and transparency through strong support for good governance. As such, the Bank recognizes that their knowledge and inputs are an essential building block in the foundation for a better and thriving Rwandan society.
