New Report Examines the Impact of Closing Civic Space on Development and Humanitarian CSOs

PUBLISHED: SEPTEMBER 9, 2016

This issue of Global Trends examines the key constraints and challenges faced by development CSOs, which, like CSOs focused on human rights and advocacy, have suffered under what civil society observers have described as one of the most intense crackdowns on CSOs witnessed in a generation.

Global Trends in NGO Law is an online periodical published by ICNL, synthesizing key legal developments affecting CSOs around the world.
