About the Programme: The European Union and the British Council are carrying out a programme called the European Union Agent for Citizen Driven Transformation Programme. The programme seeks to strengthen the capacity of CSOs to be better drivers of change. In other to achieve this, the European Union in the states of its engagement mapped out Civil Society Organizations or Civil Society Networks or Community Based Organizations whose thematic focus are in the area of EU’s engagements. The strategy of operation is to engage these organizations and networks in capacity building trainings, individual coaching sessions, bolster collaboration among local Civil Society Organizations through peer learning sessions and ultimately passing out small grants and thereby assessing the level to which the capacities CSOs have being developed. This project since September 2021 and went in phases.
