• Weaving global networks- Handbook for policy influence
  Networks are increasingly drawing scholarly and practitioner attention as very effective ways to organise efforts towards achieving certain social agendas. New regional and global networks of civil society organisations (CSOs) are being constantly created and CSOs continue to participate in them. There is a demand to improve knowledge about how these networks – as one mode of non governmental public action – operate today. There is also a need to open up new spaces to think about how they can evolve in the near future in order to become more legitimate, effective, transparent, democratic and accountable.
