Small voluntary and community organisations are at the heart of civil society approaches to tackling poverty, disadvantage, lack of opportunity and injustice, not just through the services that they provide, but through shaping, changing and challenging practice. This aspect of their work ranges from supporting individuals to understand their rights, through to attempts to change or challenge the status quo – such as influencing policy or social attitudes around a particular issue. IVAR is conducting a study that will take an in-depth look at the experiences of a group of small VCOs that are shaping, changing and challenging practice in order to produce useful, usable and, we hope, inspiring insights that other small VCOs can learn from.
