CSOs in Indonesia have a long tradition of supporting development, humanitarian assistance and public policy advocacy across the country, especially in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
However, CSOs have felt the impact of the Covid-19 crisis strongly, as programme implementation and organisational sustainability are at risk. At the same time, the COVID-19 pandemic can provide a momentum to accelerate the evolutionary process of CSOs to access alternative sources of domestic funding and maximise the use of information and digital technologies.
The CO-EVOLVE project aims to promote joint evolution of Indonesian CSOs to build organisational resilience in dealing with the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic and other crisis, as well as to promote collective action as a key driving force to implement sustainable development.
Specifically, the project is designed to strengthen the enabling environment and capacity of Indonesian CSOs to mobilise domestic resources to mitigate the social and economic impact of COVID-19 as well as to support the government in accelerating progress towards achieving the SDGs in Indonesia.
