Voice for Change Partnership: evidence for advocacy
News
Through the Voice for Change Partnership, SNV strengthened CSOs to effectively voice their views in a dynamic and increasingly global context. CSOs were, among others, empowered to use evidence and data for advocacy. We’re sharing a selection of key evidence products generated through the programme, per theme and country
Together, the V4CP programme contributed to structural change and effective solutions to ensure that the interests of low-income and marginalised communities are included in government and business policies and practices.
Evidence creation and dissemination played an important role in the programme. Through its partnership with IFPRI and in collaboration with other research institutes, the programme developed high quality evidence to be used by CSOs for advocacy and influencing efforts. CSOs were capacitated to use the evidence for advocacy by contextualising the results of the research and by translating them into targeted messages.
Below is a selection of key evidence products generated through the programme, per theme and country.
