tools for citizens
Tools for Citizens program was built to support civil society identify assets and needs gained by action field work of civil society actors and facilitate the process of translating this knowledge into easy and accessible tools, methods and workshops that will help community groups, organizations and institutions globally to cover organizational and functional needs.
TFC was inspired by communities in crisis and its Toolbox was co-created with the input of civil society actors from Turkey in 2017 and Greece in 2018.
All the tools, methods and workshops that were developed and archived during the program, created the Civil Society Toolbox!
Since 2018, the Civil Society Toolbox supports civil society actors, community groups, organizations, institutions and foundations to identify and address organizational and MMM
