Interpreter for Evidence Based Advocacy Programme:
First Capacity Building Session

1. Background
SNV is an international not-for-profit development organisation, working in
38 countries in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. SNV specializes in
supporting the resourcefulness of development actors by developing local
capacities, improving performance and services, strengthening governance
systems, helping to create access for excluded groups and by making markets
work for the poor. Our global team of advisors use their specialist sector
and change expertise in Agriculture, Renewable Energy, and WASH to
facilitate sustainable change in the livelihoods of millions of people
living in poverty.
SNV is starting its Global Partnerships: Evidence Based Advocacy Programme
in 2016. This five-year project, funded by the Dutch Ministry of Foreign
Affairs (DGIS), aims at strengthening capacities of CSOs to advocate for a
conducive enabling environment. The programme will be implemented in 6
countries: Burkina-Faso, Honduras, Ghana, Kenya, Rwanda and Indonesia. The
programme’s main goal is to support progress in globally challenging topics
related to the Sustainable Development Goals, with a specific focus on
inclusion and equity issues. This goal is to be achieved by increasing Civil
Society Organisations (CSOs) capacities to participate, contribute and
influence strategic debates and policy-making processes. In Indonesia, the
two topics that will be addressed through the programme are Water,
Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) and Food and Nutrition Security (FNS).
As a part of CSOs’ capacity development, SNV will be conducting the first
capacity building session in Bogor, 13-16 July 2016. The first session aims
to introduce Evidence-based Advocacy programme, PME framework, and
Leadership and Advocacy skills to the CSOs, and to identify action plan and
support needed.
2. Objective and Activity
