This Guide for Trainers is an online resource to accompany TACSO’s Manual on ‘CSOs and Citizens’ Participation’.

The aim of the Guide is to demonstrate a range of methodologies and tools that can be used in many different types of learning activities for CSO managers and staff, local trainers and consultants, interested in building capacity for strengthening Citizens’ Participation. The Guide also builds on the references made in the Manual by providing access to guidelines and templates.

The Guide is not a comprehensive manual for trainers, but is rather a starting point for those interested in designing and delivering training on this topic. The Guide is organised in chapters which reflect the first five chapters in the TACSO ‘CSOs and Citizens’ Participation’ Manual, which highlight the most significant technical areas to be addressed by CSOs.
