The Civil Society Support Programme (CSSP) emerged as a response to the challenges facing the civil society of Pakistan with regards to the fight against poverty, social injustice, and governance issues. CSSP aims for a meaningful engagement of civil society in the socio-economic and democratic development in Pakistan. This will be achieved by diversifying the efforts of different stakeholders including Pakistan's youth, civil society organizations, media persons, academia, researchers, lawyers, trade unions, and elected representatives through lobbying and advocacy for policy reforms and implementation.
