The IDB Group maximizes the value and sustainability of operations and governance in the region by engaging with civil society organizations (CSO) that are technically or geographically relevant for each initiative. 

This engagement is led by the Citizen Engagement Team at the Vice Presidency for Countries (VPC/VPC).  

In this section of our website, you will find information about: 

• Our geo-referenced engagement platform for the three development stakeholders: governments, private sector, and civil society

• Our new Civil Society Engagement Strategy

• Our Citizen Engagement Training Program, where development stakeholders can access scholarships and training.  

• Our IDB Group - Civil Society Annual Meetings, where we hold dialogues with development stakeholders about new trends in citizen engagement
