ADB ’s NGO and Civil Society Center (NGOC ) serves as the focal point for ADB ’s interaction with civil society organizations (CSO s), including the broad range of nongovernment organizations, foundations, social movements, and trade unions. The NGOC is a part of the Gender, Social Development and Civil Society Division in ADB ’s Regional and Sustainable Development Department. Its key functions include empowering operations departments to work with NGO s/CSO s, serving as ADB ’s knowledge center and advisor on consultation and participation with NGO s/CSO s, managing implementation of ADB ’s Policy on Cooperation with NGO s, contributing to the capacity of ADB staff and NGO s/CSO s to work together, communicating on ADB ’s work with NGO s/CSO s, and supporting the exchange of knowledge and expertise between ADB and civil society. The NGOC also coordinates ADB ’s NGO and Civil Society Cooperation Network, which comprises designated staff from departments and offices across the institution.
