Giving for Change (GfC)
The Giving for Change (GfC) project contributes to consolidating the civic space through promoting local philanthropy to increase local ownership, and unlock citizens’ agency and strengthen communities’ ability to claim entitlements from different actors, especially governments. The key strategy for implementation is promoting communities of practice among civil society organizations, influencing enabling environment for civil society and local giving. It is funded by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs and implemented by the Giving for Change Alliance (GfCA) in 8 countries across Africa, Asia and South America.
