Strengthening Civic Space. Amplifying Community Voices.

Driving Democratic participation & Peaceful Cohesion in South Sudan

Established to bridge the gap between grassroots citizens and democratic governance, Mobilizing Organizations for Voice and Empowerment (MOVE) is a youth- and women-led civil society organization operating in South Sudan.

Over the past two years, we have worked directly at the local level to equip young leaders, women advocates, and community groups with the knowledge, platforms, and advocacy tools required to participate meaningfully in South Sudan’s transitional governance processes.

Core Focus Areas

Pillars of community action

Our targeted programs bridge grassroots community organizing with institutional development partners across three core operational areas in South Sudan.

Civic Education & Democratic Rights

Youth & Women Leadership

Grassroots Accountability

We conduct accessible civic education workshops and community radio outreach in Juba Arabic and local vernaculars, informing citizens about their constitutional rights, the peace process, and local democratic governance.

We train emerging youth and women leaders in grassroots organizing, peaceful advocacy, and public policy engagement, ensuring marginalized demographics lead community-level decision-making.

We organize safe, constructive town hall meetings that connect local communities directly with county authorities, parliamentarians, and decision-makers to address service delivery and security transparently.
