The Just Future Alliance

Civil society plays a transformative role in ensuring that those with power hear the voices of all people.

That is why the Just Future Alliance aims to achieve equitable access to justice for all and people-centred security in the framework of the rule of law, transparency, and accountability.

The programme establishes partnerships with international and local civil society organisations that enable women, youth and people affected by conflict to advocate for their demands.

Just Future is a five-year programme funded by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands and implemented in six countries: Afghanistan, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Mali, Niger, and South Sudan.

The challenge

In numerous countries, the opportunities for autonomous action are diminishing, and civil society groups are frequently fragile.

Consequently, the perspectives of the most marginalised people are rarely represented in the policies and actions of justice and governance actors, as well as in international policy discussions that determine priorities and resource allocation.

Cordaid and Just Future

To address this challenge, strengthen the capacity of civil society to lobby and advocate for the interests of citizens and hold those in power accountable, the programme was established in 2021 with Cordaid as the lead organisation.

CSPPS, a global network of civil society organisations whose secretariat is hosted by Cordaid, acts as the networking partner of Just Future and promotes inclusive political decision-making and peace processes.
