Definition

  • Networks: groups of organizations and individuals working together to achieve changes in policy, law, or programs for a particular issue. Networks can be formal or informal and functioning at local, national, and global levels. Alliances are considered as network. They differ from organizations as they are a coalition of organisations. Ex: Migration group in Nepal, ICAM (Including Children Affected by Migration) network, NGO refugee group in Kenya, Initiative for child’s rights in Global compacts,

  • Active contribution of Tdh: participation through technical support, policy advice, advocacy and lobbying initiatives, campaigning.

How to collect & analyse the data

What do we count?

Tdh counts entities (networks) – i.e group of organisations, not only single-organisations as such.

How to calculate the indicator's value

This is the sum of networks in which Tdh is active member.

Data sources

Activity report, Project data.

Data collection methods and tools

Secondary data review. Regularly updated listing of networks in which Tdh is member and actively contribute.

Disaggregation

This indicator is to be collected at national, regional, and global. Please, disaggregate by geographical scope: local, national, regional, global.

Limitations and precautions

  • Networks include a wide range of different platforms and collective initiatives; the figure alone does not indicate what is behind it. Please, provide qualitative insights on added value of Tdh participation in those networks.

  • Protection networks dealing with migration and mobility issues can be counted here.

What further analysis are we interested in?

  • What are the main successes of these networks?

  • Which variety of actors participating in the networks?

  • Do the discussions in those networks reflect the different perspectives and are they inclusive?
