The Iraqi Civil Society Solidarity Initiative developed out of a 2009 conference in Italy that brought together 38 Iraqi representatives (from human rights and cultural associations, women’s groups, youth and student groups, NGO’s, labour unions, media outlets) and some 20 representatives from international NGO’s and social movements.
The ICSSI was formed in order to discuss the on-going challenges that face Iraqi civil society in building a free and democratic Iraq, to strengthen alliances, to improve cooperation, to support international awareness, and to develop projects.
