What we do
We work in four areas: Initiating and supporting lobby and advocacy campaigns to reverse existing legislation and stop the development of other unfriendly policies and legislation at national, sub-regional and continental levels; strengthening CSOs capacity for Principled engagement with governments and other partners on development and democracy; Monitor compliance with existing and n
ew principles for CSO-Government collaboration; and strengthen legitimacy of CSOs to counter government regulation and control. ACPPP is unique in three ways:
1. It is a Platform and not a network or Forum. 2. ACPPP strengthens the capacity of CSOs and networks to respond, and provides the continental peer support needed to build this capacity and sustain the response. 3. ACPPP works primarily through ongoing initiatives, especially at national and sub-regional levels. New initiatives are supported while those by networks and umbrella bodies are strengthened
