Shifting power in international civil society organisations

"Power Shift" within international civil society organisations (ICSOs) is topic of growing importance. Who has power? Who can exercise it? How does it work? In conversation, Ed Boswell, Co-Founder and CEO at Conner Advisory and Wolfgang Jamann, Executive Director of the International Civil Society Centre look at power concerning ICSOs' governance. The two recently led our “Power Shift Lab” on the subject of PowerShift in ICSOs. The lab invited leaders from ICSOs organisations to analyse power dynamics and factors furthering or hindering the shifting of power within their organisations.
