Building and Evolving Pro-Democracy Civil Society Coalitions

Is your organization equipped to build and sustain impactful pro-democracy coalitions in today’s civic landscape? Join Keseb, a nonpartisan, pro-democracy nonprofit building a vibrant transnational civil society ecosystem, for a practical workshop on strategies for navigating closing civic space. This session will offer honest reflections on building, maintaining, and (when necessary) retiring coalitions - especially in the democracy field. While coalitions are a critical model across political contexts, few resources exist that directly support coalition-building within civil society. Learn why strategic collaboration is essential and how to do it effectively. Gain insights from global pro-democracy coalitions and explore how collective action can strengthen your organization’s impact. ​​Join NLA/TCS and Keseb as they discuss strategies for collective action and share lessons about how to do it well, sharing lessons from pro-democracy civil society coalitions across the globe. Reserve your spot today!

Who Should Attend? This workshop is ideal for organizational leaders and staff from nonprofits, advocacy groups, and coalitions working to advance democracy, human rights, and civic engagement.

Trainers: Yordanos Eyoel, Founder and CEO, Keseb, and Andrew Clarke, Democracy Fellowship Program Lead, Keseb
