The Civil Society Strategy will reaffirm the value that government places on civil society and explore what more government can do to support its work. It will provide an opportunity to explore ways to build new partnerships within and between sectors and communities in order to better mobilise resources and expertise and find practical new solutions to the problems we face.

A listening exercise will be launched in the new year and findings reported later in the 2018. We will engage young people and youth organisations in the development of the Strategy.

The Full Time Social Action Review is independent of government and will publish its findings in December 2017, in time to take account of their recommendations in the Civil Society Strategy.
