Civic Action Strategies is a woman-owned small business that provides expertise on every aspect of international development that touches citizens. With an emphasis on sustainability and measurable results, our flexible, hands-on approach increases civil society’s understanding of democratic principles and enables citizens and NGOs to expand their confidence to take action and their skills to know how to participate fully in their public life.

Civic Action Strategies structures programs to fit the needs, culture, and conditions of the community. Our philosophy and techniques stem from years of research, program implementation and field experience in democratic education and engagement, and strategic and organizational planning. Our work in Africa, Eastern Europe, the United States, Southeast Asia, the Caucuses, Latin America, and the Middle East, and our in-depth knowledge of faith-based, governmental, non-governmental, and educational organizations make us uniquely able to deliver comprehensive civil society strengthening assistance, ideas, and programs.
