Strengthening Organisations
We work with organisations in identifying changing needs and co-creating interventions towards enhancing their effectiveness. These planned processes of change are facilitated through the approach of accompaniment. Accompaniment is participatory, involving HID Forum and the partner organisation working in collaboration towards achieving the desired change. It involves dialogue, designing interventions, giving support in implementation and providing feedback towards addressing the development needs of the organisation
Currently, HID Forum engages with 11 selected partner organisations, which are CBOs headed by marginal communities and they belong to diverse constituencies. These selected organisations are part of a cohort and we are journeying with them to strengthen their organizations and its leadership so that they become vibrant learning organizations. HIDF will provide institutional building support to partners including organisational systems, structure, culture, personality, working methods, governance, programme areas as well as partners’ field processes, strategies, community mobilisation and alliance building. Under this initiative, each Cohort Partner will build networks with organisations involved in similar thematic area of work, referred to as Sub cohorts.
Also, HID Forum supports other Civil Society Organisations based on their need for engagement.
HID Forum has provided accompaniment support to numerous organisations. So far, these engagements have involved interventions that fall into areas of:
- Strategising, visioning, developing perspectives
- Organisational restructuring
- Gender and equity mainstreaming
- Setting up or strengthening systems for smoother functioning- governance,
- Financial systems, planning monitoring and evaluation Leadership
