The goal of this project, funded by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA), is to strengthen civil society organizations' effectiveness by developing globally aligned, strong accountability practice. It has three objectives: 1) to improve CSO accountability codes and practice; 2) to reduce the transaction costs related to overlaps between multiple codes; and 3) to contribute to a more enabling environment for CSOs. Led by the International Civil Society Centre, the project brings together eight well-established civil society accountability networks from Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe and North and South America. These partners include: ACFID (Australia), Cooperation Committee for Cambodia (CCC), INGO Accountability Charter (Europe), NGO Quality Assurance Certification Mechanism (QuAM) in Uganda, Rendir Cuentas (Latin America), Viwango (Kenya), Voluntary Action Network India (VANI), and InterAction.
