​Civil Society Under Serious Attack – CIVICUS

Despite their contribution to social justice, civil society organisations came under ‘serious attack’ in 109 countries in 2015, according to a new report published by CIVICUS.

Mandeep Tiwana, head of policy and analysis at CIVICUS, an international organisation representing civil society organisations, points out that, “Civil society freedoms of expression, association and peaceful assembly have been under serious attack in 109 countries around the world in 2015 alone.”

Tiwana is of the view that, “One of the main tests of the justness of any society is how it treats its minorities whether there is equality of opportunity for all particularly for disadvantaged populations.”
