We are a non-profit civil society organization led by apolitical professionals who believe that all citizens empowered with monitoring can actively participate in public life and positively influence much needed improvements at a moment in time where Africa & Egypt are experiencing a mild increase in the level of national & political awareness.
As such we believe that it is our duty to help fellow citizens capture & harness the positive impact of these changes and use it to create a much more proactive society: one that is hardworking & responsible, that is inclusive & tolerant, a society that can select its leaders and hold them accountable.
We pledge to act as a catalyst that enables positive transformation wanting:
- To mobilize ordinary citizens – especially the youths- from all walks of life to engage on the reform problems facing their society (including executive branch domination of society, lack of judiciary independence, and corruption).
- To inculcate a "pro-democracy monitoring culture" combined with elements of consumer protection and advocacy campaigns amongst the citizens.
- Improve the civil society’s coordination ensuring that they work together synergistically towards a common goal.
To undertake projects in Egypt & Africa that will:
- Instill in the children democratic values that ensure their increased participation in the governance process and promote practices of a tolerant and pluralistic society.
- Act as a catalyst and a resource to create awareness on the importance of engaging citizens in the fight against corruption.
- Highlight and advocate for an independent judiciary.
- Increase political openness and democratic processes.
- Elevate awareness on Human Rights issues.
- Promote the rule of law and legal reforms.
- Expand the community of reform minded individuals and groups & foster networks among the civil society community.
- Fight Corruption & promote transparency & good governance.
- Create new economic opportunities.
- Enhance access to quality education systems.
- Empower women.
- Promote public awareness and involvement in political issues.
