We attended the 3 February London Civil Society Organisations (CSO) Conference in the lead-up to the 4 February London Donors conference. Over 200 CSOs were represented, some of which were Syrian. As an organisation, we stressed the issues of civilian protection as well as Syrian leadership in identifying funding priorities and in implementing projects on the ground.
The event was organised around the four key themes of protection, education, women, and livelihood. See below for our official reaction to this conference. Overall, while there were many positive outcomes, it notably fell short of realising the aim of listening to Syrians.
