The “Empowering Civil Society for Social Change in Jharkhand” project (the project) was a collaborative effort between the Civil Society Academy and Gender at Work, aimed at strengthening civil society organisations (CSOs) in Jharkhand. This initiative, funded by the Oak Foundation, was implemented in two phases: Phase 1 from October 2018 to December 2019 and Phase 2 from January 2020 to June 2023.
This Synthesis Report examines the contribution of the project (and Gender at Work’s role) in building the leadership and organisational capacities of the Jharkhand Anti-Trafficking Network and Samvad. Specifically, it examines the types of capacities strengthened in each entity and the similarities and differences in outcomes. It also considers the processes through which these changes have occurred (the pathways of change).
