This paper highlights the lessons learned from the implementation of the Agents for Citizen-driven Transformation (ACT) Programme. Some of the emerging themes include:

  • A strong background knowledge of the civil society context coupled with a self-awareness of the challenges faced by the CSOs themselves are critical for any development programme to meaningfully support CSOs in Nigeria
  • It is equally important that an integrated, tailor-made approach that encourages flexibility and adaptation and allows all categories of CSOs to learn from one another will make a world of difference in supporting CSOs to become true agents of development. 

Read about these lessons and more in this experience paper.
