Partnership is at the core of Save the Children International’s (SCI’s) Theory of Change and the effectiveness of partnership depends on the existence of strong partners. Enhancing and strengthening local CSO capacity will bring lasting change in the lives of children, by enabling CSOs to call for increased government accountability. In addition, the existence of strong local CSO partners encourages development of innovative programmes that benefit children and communities; and creates opportunities to scale up good practices that reach more children.
