SUMMARY:Civil engagement in donor countries - Workshop
DESCRIPTION:About the event\nIn the context of shifting geopolitics\, changing narratives around humanitarian action and declining funding\, reflection is happening on the diverse roles different humanitarian actors have. A recent report by ICVA outlines the complementarity of various actors in the system. INGOs\, as one group of  those actors\, see much diversity: they include large\, federated organisations\, specialised technical agencies\, some multi-mandated\, others purely humanitarian. Their operational models also differ: exclusively through partnerships\, direct implementation\, or a mix of modalities. In the present context\, some INGOs are exploring specifically how to strengthen their financial and political support base in the donor countries where their headquarters are based. \nThe first session in this series on ‘The role of INGOs in a localised system‘ concluded that a future role for INGOs is shaped differently. It should be smaller\, less focused on implementation and more as ‘connectors’: fund managers\, risk absorbers\, technical support providers. In addition\, a key function of the role is about exerting influence: global political advocacy\, defending humanitarian principles\, sustaining public support for humanitarian action in donor countries\, and fundraising. This session explores how organisations fulfil these roles. It will also look more broadly of the history of creating ‘draagvlak’ (support) in the Netherlands. It aims to conclude with identifying some radical ideas for engagement. \nObjectives of the session: \n\nInforming on various approaches to strengthening international solidarity in donor countries\, historically and practically\nInspire through examples on how INGOs engage constituencies in the Netherlands\nExplore novel opportunities for engagement within or across INGOs\n\nSpeakers \n\nSera Koolmees\, Senior Communications Officer\, Partos\nCyrille Koolhaas\, Head of Fundraising\, Stichting Vluchteling\nOther speakers\, tbc\n\nWho is this session for?\nAs with all KUNO sessions\, anyone working in or alongside the humanitarian field is welcome. This session\, however\, may also be particularly relevant to those working at communications or fundraising departments of humanitarian organisations. \n	Register now
