What does British Council do in the field of governance and civil society?
The British Council appreciates the importance of changes in the UK constitution and will reflect them in our work around the world. We work with both government and civil society to advance debate, knowledge and skills and seek to create a wider appreciation of the UK as a valued partner in tackling key reform agendas and promoting sustainable development. Specific areas of work we perform globally are namely: law and human rights, gender equality, economics and management, ethnicity, communities and social inclusion, governance and information, modernising government and participative democracy.
