Practical Guide for Policymakers on Protecting and Promoting Civic Space

By OECD

Over the past decade, countries have increasingly recognised civic space as a cornerstone of functioning democracies. This Practical Guide for Policymakers builds on the 2022 OECD global report "The Protection and Promotion of Civic Space: Strengthening Alignment with International Standards and Guidance". The global report presents a comparative perspective on the protection and promotion of civic space, based on data collected from 52 OECD and partner countries, and offers 10 high-level recommendations. This guide for policymakers provides specific guidance for implementing these recommendations, highlighting relevant actors, policies, and practices. It includes tables, checklists, and figures to help public officials take concrete steps in various areas that affect civic space.
