Terms of Reference Creation of an Impact Video for RCSP and NINGO to be utilized During the CSO Week 2023
Background
The Rwanda Civil Society Platform (RCSP) is composed of 12 national umbrella Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) with 1,478 member organizations. RCSP serves to enhance capacities of CSOs to contribute to the people’s well-being by acting as a platform for dialogue, context analysis, and exchange of information, mutual respect, lobbying, and evidence-based advocacy. Its mission is to empower, represent, coordinate and defend public interests and the interest of its members at national, regional, and international levels for development, effectiveness, and sustainability.
The Network of International Non-¬‐Governmental Organizations (NINGO) was formed in 2005 with the aim of creating an exchange platform for members to network, share experiences and synergies, and the opportunity for members to speak with one voice. As the only umbrella organization for international NGOs, NINGO remains as a recognized bridge between INGOs and development partners. With more than 75 members, NINGO collectively makes a significant contribution to Rwanda, bringing over US$212 million annually to support the country’s development objectives.
Although both platforms have existed for decades, some audiences are still unclear of their vision, goals and achievements. In addition, audiences are unaware of the collective range of programmes carried out by the member organisations and the collective scale of investment and impact of local CSOs and INGOs in Rwanda.
