Democracy, Rights, and Governance
EnCompass’ work in the area of democracy and governance focuses on strengthening the capacities of development organizations and government agencies to address participatory, stable, and inclusive governing processes and systems.

Our support includes developing technical resources and providing technical assistance, documenting good and promising practices, conducting assessments and evaluations, designing and facilitating training curricula, and conducting research studies to support the development of democracy, rights, and governance.
