  1. National Workshop, New Delhi, 18-19 February 2010Nurturing Partnerships for Developing Sustainable CSOs, RECAP OF DAY 1 (18-2-2010) Presented by: Shri Vijay Sardana [SMA Management]

  2. RECAP OF DAY 1 (18-2-2010) • Such Capacity Building (Training) initiatives are needed • Costs should be affordable by small CSOs (Rs. 7,500/- is very high) • CSO Governance is an issue; total / too much reliance on the leader / promoter (one man show) • Government needs good partners; credibility is an issue, need for assessing partnerships (mechanism for grading, rating, accreditations) • CSOs known for innovations, experimentation, piloting, and demonstrations. This needs to be encouraged and supported. • Trend towards conformity decreasing space for disagreements; need for respecting disagreements. • CSOs weak in Documentation & Dissemination; needs serious attention. • After demonstrating performance and thus building credibility, it is possible to work with Government on your own terms / negotiated terms. • Certain government programmes provide for establishment costs (e.g. NREGA, Special SGSY) • Sustained communication and engagement with donors (Sponsors) is key for resource mobilization • Consultancy services in demand when provided with high level of technical competence. Presented by: Shri Vijay Sardana [SMA Management]

  3. RECAP OF DAY 1 (18-2-2010)……………………………….. Contd. • Partnership with Academic / Research institutions possible when CSOs have something substantial to contribute, e.g. in designing the curricula, field research. • Partnership with media not possible (easy?), but relationship building is a must. • Unlike Associations of corporate houses (CII, FICCI), Media does not have access to such bodies of CSOs for information gathering. • CSOs could explore starting a separate TV Channel, in association with media. • CSOs partnership with corporate / CSR is promising; both sides have to provide space to each other; mutuality / trust needed in building sustained relationships. • CSR of industries do need to take care of their neighbourhood for development; Corporate Foundations have flexibility in choosing areas of work (geographic as well as thematic. • WIN WIN situation is a must for a successful partnership.
