ICCL is reaching out today to share their “Freedom to Advocate” survey which will examine the restrictions placed on the voices of community, voluntary and non-governmental organisations.
ICCL has been active in monitoring and defending the rights to freedom of expression and association of community, voluntary and non-governmental organisations since our establishment. In recent years however, there have been disturbing reports of restrictions on advocacy and freedom of expression of organisations in receipt of state funding.
This survey will seek to gather the existing anecdotal evidence in a systematic fashion to build a case for action to prevent these infringements on key human rights. The survey findings, which will be 100% anonymous, will be a powerful tool to continue the work in defence of the community, voluntary and non-governmental sector.
To ensure geographical balance in the survey findings, this survey is offered to all PPNs to ensure that the voices of grassroots and local organisations across the country are heard.
Time is valuable, but ICCL is asking if you could set aside 15-20 minutes to help build a case against the silencing of voices. The survey is linked below and can also be accessed by scanning the QR Code and open for inputs until April 25th
