Civil Society Development

Based on its awareness of the development reality and its practical experience in proving advice, AGFUND comes to the fact that placing Arab woman on the right track requires activation of the third sector i.e. civil society, the sector that supports governments in development and justice. Its role complements and integrates with the government’s and relieves some burdens from governments’ shoulders.
AGFUND realized that civil society is the right hand of governments not only in development, but also in mustering idle economic and human resources and powers, in engaging all societal categories in this process not leaving anyone under poverty and deprivation. The role of civil society is vital in achieving social justice, combating poverty and charitable work.
