Turkish Association of Legislation supports civil society participation to the legislative process. The legislative process and parliamentary oversight mechanisms are not known well enough amongst non-governmental organizations. The aim of the project is to increase the capacities of CSOs and make them use legislative tools in the parliament more effectively.
In this context, we organize seminars and training programs for the members of CSOs. The ideal term of these programs is two days with more than 10 different presentations. If there is a time problem, then two main presentations are made which are about law making process in the committees and plenary and parliamentary oversight mechanisms. The participants are given certificate at the end of programs.
The first program of this project is held in Ankara on 20-21 June, 2009 with the participation of representatives from 20 different CSOs. These are Human Rights Joint Platform, Human Rights Association, The Association for Human Rights and Solidarity for Oppressed People, the Altinokta Foundation for the Blind, The Federation of the Blind of Turkey, Children Agenda Association, International Children Centre, Ankara Children’s Right Platform, Association of Committees for Monitoring Parliamentarians and Elected Officials, Capital City Women’s Platform, Consumers Union, Western Anatolia Industrialists and Businessmen Association, Association for Parliamentary Advisors, Flying Broom and Electromechanic Industrialists Association.
