Each organisation which is committed to GB and C4C need to have a strategy of how they are going to implement their commitment to localisation at country level. NOT nationalising their country offices and calling it localisation. @RezaKChyBD @Nanet_Antequisa @humanaidint
One problem in #Localisation is that country offices of signatories are not necessarily fully informed by their international head offices...and information on Localisation does not goes thru well at the local level @sssingh21 @A4EP2 @Charter4Change @WHA_Forum #Whaf2019

Read the A4EP position paper, the current IASC definitions of local and national actors has a loophole. Let's work together to fix it. @osephinealabi @David_A_Fisher @SteveJoeDixon @iascch @GPJGeneva @CWSAsiaPacific @liberianjue @ICVAnetwork @JemilahMahmood @apoorterman
The humanitarian sector needs a right definition of local & national actors if the commitments of #GrandBargain @agenda4humanity and @Charter4Change have to be achieved. @A4EP2 @SmrutiPatel11 @RezaKChyBD @sssingh21 reliefweb.int/report/world/i…

No one can work in isolation. It is important for CSOs to work together to challenge policies that shrink the civic space and promote dialogue. #TogetherWeSpeak @NLCivilsociety @CIVICUSalliance @WildeGanzenNL

Replying to @ptsuresh @ShefVaidya
No, international NGOs are quite clever. They do good talking, but rarely deliver on them.
Their primary motive is retaining hegemony over finance.
