CBOs and NGOs seek to foster improvements in the living conditions of groups who deserve to enjoy their full rights. Mobilising support seeks for more systematic and lasting solutions for these groups, to be obtained with support from other citizens and from national or local authorities.

The Organisational Capacity Assessment questionnaire (OCA) maps the capacities at present of your organisation to conduct activities for mobilising support or local fundraising.
