Networks, if effective, enable civil society organisations (CSOs) and citizens to build their power, by amplifying their voices and providing greater legitimacy and influence for sustainable development and social change.

The intention of NEF is to help networks to:

• Monitor progress and performance;
• Identify strengths, capacity gaps and set targets;
• Improve planning for greater impact.
