Read more about the project

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.

Five organisations/networks, identified by the Oak Foundation, participated in the project: Jharkhand Anti-Trafficking Network, Samvad, Ibtida, Ekjut, and Maitri. Gender at Work focused its interventions on building the capacity of the Jharkhand Anti-Trafficking Network and Samvad, while the Civil Society Academy directed its efforts towards Ekjut and Maitri.

Case Studies

These case studies assess and document the contribution of the project (and the role of Gender at Work) to enhancing the leadership and network capacity of the Jharkhand Anti-Trafficking Network and SAMVAD. Specifically, they examine the types of capacities strengthened and the difference this has made to the organisations and the processes through which these changes have occurred (the pathways of change).
