Civil society refers to non-governmental organizations that work to benefit society and express the will of the people. It serves several important functions, such as checking governmental abuse of power, mobilizing against authoritarian rule, and stimulating political and civic participation. Civil society promotes democratic norms and values, represents interests, forms social ties, and develops new political leaders. It works to monitor elections and corruption, oversee government, empower local communities, and promote democratic reforms. When functioning properly, civil society generates social capital through norms, trust and networks that facilitate cooperation. Communicators should support civil society organizations to protect democracy, the rule of law, individual liberties, and civic engagement.

Voluntary organisations (VO)
Voluntary organizations are groups organized on the basis of voluntary membership to accomplish common goals or interests of members. They can be formed for purposes such as trade associations, unions, cultural activities, and avoiding government monopoly. Some key objectives of voluntary organizations are to meet uncovered societal needs, improve national solidarity, and avoid concentration of power in government hands. Examples of voluntary organizations in India before independence include Ramkrishna Mission and Dharma Samaj, while after independence include Infosys Foundation, Tata Trust, and Azim Premji Foundation. Common types of voluntary organizations globally include charities, foundations, social welfare and advocacy groups, faith-based organizations, community groups, and recreational sports organizations.
Introduction To Community Organizing
This presentation outlines the basics of Direct Action community organizing as taught by the Midwest Academy in Chicago and as developed by Saul Alinsky. Tom Tresser, tom@tresser.com.
Community Organizing 101
This document provides an overview of community organizing. It begins with introducing civic engagement polls and discussing the history of civic progress through struggle. It then defines different forms of community organizing like direct service, self-help, education, advocacy, and direct action. Direct action involves challenging existing power structures and aims for more structural change. The document outlines principles of direct action organizing and provides an example of a local environmental justice group in Little Village. It emphasizes that organizing is about building power and creative problem solving. It concludes with breaking attendees into groups to brainstorm solutions for a civic problem and report back.
Voluntary organization
Voluntary organizations are non-profit groups that work to help disadvantaged sections of society. They operate voluntarily and without state control. The document discusses how voluntary organizations in India work to supplement government development efforts, especially in rural areas. They aim to empower local communities and make them self-sufficient through activities like spreading information, demonstrating use of local resources, and mobilizing community financing. The Seventh Five-Year Plan in particular recognized the role of voluntary organizations in development work alongside welfare activities.
Role of Civil society on National Eduaction Policy 2010
The document discusses the role of civil society in influencing Bangladesh's National Education Policy of 2010. It outlines how civil society organizations advocated for reforms to the education system and helped shape the new policy. Some key ways civil society contributed included calling for a unitary education system, advocating for secular and poverty-friendly policies, and ensuring provisions for madrasa education, disabled students, and technology-based learning. The new policy extended compulsory education in response to civil society demands and incorporated other reforms supported by organizations.
What Is Active Citizenship
Active citizenship refers to participation in civil society, community and political life through non-violent and respectful means that uphold human rights and democratic values. It acknowledges that all individuals and groups have the right to engage in and influence democratic societies and institutions. Measuring active citizenship across European countries found the highest levels in Nordic nations, followed by Central and Anglo-Saxon Europe, then Mediterranean, and lowest in Eastern Europe. Key factors influencing active citizenship included the length of established democracy and available economic resources.
Community Engagement Part2
This document discusses perspectives on community from social sciences like anthropology, sociology, and political science. It also examines the role of institutions in shaping community from a social science lens. Key institutions discussed include government, economy, religion, education, family, and civil society groups. Civil society is defined as the "third sector" comprising non-government organizations, social movements, interest groups, and local/international bodies that operate outside direct state control but work towards social goals.

Civil society and public administration
Civil society groups in the Philippines have shown influence in some areas of policy advocacy and governance reform, such as procurement reform, but have remained largely inactive on other legislative measures. For example, the Transparency and Accountability Network has proposed bills to restructure the country's tax collection agency and provide for freedom of access to information. However, there are no laws to protect whistleblowers, compromising accountability. Civil society played a role in the ouster of former President Estrada and his replacement's reform agenda included accountability reforms, showing that civil society and the state need to collaborate to achieve anti-corruption goals. The Philippines has a tradition of civil society involvement in policy issues, so advocating for accountability reforms should not be difficult

This paper establishes inadequacies of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) theory to explain social media adoption by microbusinesses. Literature review confirms the explaining power of UTAUT in variety of technology adoption by businesses. This paper uses UTAUT theory to implement social media technology in microbusinesses.

Social influence and facilitating condition did not influence the behavioural intentions of the microbusiness owners. Individual characteristics and codification effort dominated the use behaviour. Goal of gaining customers leads to behavioural modification resulting in replacing of behavioural intention with goals as a superior method of predicting adoption behaviour within the context of microbusinesses.

This document proposes an extension to the canonical action research (CAR) model to increase its flexibility. It summarizes a study that used CAR to implement social media in a microbusiness but encountered limitations due to CAR's rigid structure. To address this, the study adopted a trial-and-error problem-solving approach. Based on these findings, the document proposes an extended CAR model that allows iterations between stages to increase flexibility while maintaining CAR's cyclical nature. This extended model is presented as having theoretical and practical implications for conducting action research.

Best Practices for Taking Nip Width Impressions
The use of nip impression papers to determine the actual nip widths of pairs of rolls under operating conditions is too infrequently used. Normally, if the web being processed appears to be uniform in moisture content as it leaves the process, it is assumed that all is working well along the line. Uneven
pressure along the width of the roll caused by insufficient crown will not be detectable by tests on the finished product, provided the pressure is not high enough to actually start crushing the web being rocessed.

Civil society organizations play an important role in democracy according to the document. They can help establish and maintain democracy in several ways: by monitoring the government, exposing issues, encouraging democratic values, promoting political participation, providing democratic education, and acting as an arena for expression. In the Philippines, civil society groups helped transition the country to democracy and shaped the new constitution after People Power Revolution in 1986. Examples of civil society groups in the Philippines include Bagong Alyansang Makabayan which advocates for national and social issues, and National Secretariat of Social Action-Justice and Peace which focuses on poverty and governance issues.

Community organization
Community organization and development are related processes that aim to empower communities and solve problems through collective action. Community organization involves organizing a community to address common issues and develop leadership. It recognizes democratic values and aims to create participation. Community development is a structured process that gives communities more control over conditions affecting their lives in order to build confidence and tackle problems locally. Both community organization and development work to empower communities to improve social well-being through community-led solutions.
Role of civil society and active citizenship
The role of civil society and active citizenship is fundamental to the functioning of a healthy and vibrant democracy. These concepts are closely intertwined and play a crucial role in shaping the social, political, and economic landscape of a nation. Here's a detailed description of their roles:
1. **Civil Society**:
Civil society refers to the vast array of non-governmental organizations, community groups, and voluntary associations that exist independently of the government and business sectors. These organizations are driven by the interests and concerns of citizens and often pursue the common good. Their roles include:
- **Advocacy and Monitoring**: Civil society groups advocate for various causes, including human rights, environmental protection, gender equality, and social justice. They monitor government policies and actions to ensure transparency, accountability, and adherence to democratic principles.
- **Service Provision**: Many civil society organizations provide essential services that the government may not deliver efficiently. These services can include education, healthcare, social support, and disaster relief.
- **Fostering Social Capital**: Civil society groups promote social cohesion and trust among citizens. They encourage participation, volunteerism, and community engagement, which are vital for a functioning democracy.
- **Bridge Between Citizens and Government**: They act as intermediaries between citizens and government authorities, facilitating communication and collaboration. They often help translate citizen concerns into actionable policies.
2. **Active Citizenship**:
Active citizenship is the concept of citizens taking an active role in their communities and in the democratic process. It goes beyond just voting and encompasses a range of activities that contribute to the well-being of society. Active citizens:
- **Participate in Elections**: They exercise their right to vote and engage in the electoral process, helping to shape government by selecting representatives who align with their values and beliefs.
- **Engage in Civic Education**: Active citizens educate themselves about the issues, policies, and institutions that affect their lives. They seek to understand the complexities of governance and make informed decisions.
- **Advocate and Protest**: They voice their concerns and advocate for change through peaceful protests, petitions, and other forms of activism. This can put pressure on the government to address critical issues.
- **Community Involvement**: Active citizens engage in local communities through volunteering, neighborhood associations, and other grassroots initiatives. They actively contribute to the betterment of their surroundings.
- **Holding Government Accountable**: They demand transparency, accountability, and integrity from government officials. They are vigilant in holding leaders responsible for their actions.

Com Dev
Community development aims to create economic and social progress for communities through their active participation and initiative. It places responsibility for development on community members, with external support as a complement. Community development views underdevelopment as rooted in unequal international systems and supports people's resistance and pursuit of human rights through organizations and self-reliance. It is not a welfare approach but aims to transform society for the benefit of disadvantaged groups.

It explains that in the Philippines, civil society organizations and social movements play an essential role in democracy by advocating for issues, linking different groups in society, and delivering social services. They act as important voices that facilitate public participation in governance.
Social movements openstax
Social movements aim to work toward a common social goal of creating change. They can occur at local, state, national, and global levels. Sociologists identify different types of social movements based on the level of change sought, from reform to revolutionary. Social movements also typically progress through stages from preliminary awareness to institutionalization or decline. Recent technological advances have transformed how social movements organize through social media, allowing rapid awareness and organizing across large networks. However, critics argue social media only increases superficial participation rather than deeper engagement. Theories seek to explain success of social movements through concepts like resource mobilization, framing of issues, and alignment of different movement goals.
