Mapping study of Civil Society in Egypt

The global objective of this assignment was to provide a better understanding of CSOs structure, interests and motivations, capacities and roles and their interactions with the Government of Egypt and with the private sector at national, regional and local level. This understanding was the basis for supporting more strategically civil society's participation in policy dialogue and governance and to strengthen civil society's capacities in terms of networking, knowledge sharing, communication, evidence-based advocacy and monitoring.

The specific objective of this assignment was to map out and assess from a strategic perspective key and accountable civil society organisations that play, or could play, an active and meaningful role in the democratisation and development process of Egypt and to provide recommendations for the operationalisation of the Roadmap on EU engagement with civil society in Egypt 2014-2017.
