POMED’s civil society partnerships program builds the capacity of emerging regional policy centers through mentorship and technical training. We work with civil society organizations across the Middle East and North Africa to strengthen advocacy writing skills, promote policy reform, and improve institutional practices to help ensure organizational viability and impact.
POMED partners with select policy-oriented organizations in the Middle East and North Africa to build capacity and strengthen their efficacy in effecting reform and change within their respective countries.
