Making Civil Voices Heard is the successor of Hivos’ first ICT policy and action programme (2000-2004) called Access-for-All, Equal Opportunities in Cyberspace. In 2004, Hivos initiated an independent evaluation of this programme to identify which successes had been achieved but also which further improvements were desirable. |
