Understanding the importance of civil society in development

Since INTRAC was established, we have worked to clarify, improve and defend the role of civil society in development. Here's a flavour of the work we do.

Events, research and resources

Programmes and collaborations

We run a civil society programme in Central Asia and have recently completed a similar programme with bicommunal partners in Cyprus, in addition to collaborating and supporting civil society groups internationally.
