Civic Space and COVID-19

The coronavirus pandemic has profound consequences for citizens and businesses across different Nigerian communities as the virus continues to shape local, national, and global agendas towards addressing the triple crisis of health emergency, economy, and political instability. As Nigeria emerged from the lockdown following the COVID-19 crisis, the Nigeria Network of NGOs has been documenting lessons from the measures and the impact they have on civic space. This report is based on two sets of evidence:

Open-source tracking of government measures through official press releases and statements issued by national and sub-national governments on their websites and social media handles.

Indicators developed by NNNGO for measuring/assessing the impact of measures taken by States using the UN Special Rapportuer on Freedom of Association and Assembly’s report on the promotion and protection of the right to freedom of opinion and expression and the Open Government Partnerships (OGP) guide to open government and the coronavirus: misinformation and protecting freedom of expression.

Our analysis of rapidly changing environment and challenges facing civil society, and an elaborate process of consultation within the NNNGO membership and critical stakeholders to determine the most useful role NNNGO can play in adding value to the work our members do and to secure the operational environment we want.

This strategy represents an ambitious programme of work for the next five years, building on NNNGO’s strength evident from the record of the past 5 years.

Towering high behind this brand is the professionalism and commitment of our staff, volunteers, interns and consultants.

The First Police Citizen Dialogue

The Nigeria Network of NGOs (NNNGO) in partnership with the Citizens Engagement Thematic Working Group of the Open Government Partnership (OGP) and the NationalOrientation Agency (NOA) with funding support from Heinrich Böll Foundation held the first police-citizen dialogue on September 22, 2022, in Abuja.

This dialogue provides key stakeholders from multiple contexts and practitioners to come together, sharing their thoughts and experiences on the focus of the dialogue while providing a space for joint reflection and in-depth discussion between the police and civil society around shared themes of democratic policing, shrinking civic space, citizens’ engagement, human rights, and the protection of civil and political rights.

The dialogue has proven to be fruitful and has been established as a model for effective police citizens’ engagement, serving as a blueprint and guide as to how to implement future and similar dialogues at the sub-national level.
