Representatives of the CSO’s stated that the establishment of partnerships within a network is a great advantage in fulfilling their work objectives, however, they also identified a number of challenges. Firstly they said that the motivation for being part of a network and the incentives should be clearly stated and promoted to all the members. Secondly, the mechanism of functioning should be clearly defined well prior to the establishment of the network. Thirdly, the organizations must show not only an interest in joining the network but they must have the necessary capacities to respond to the requirements of the network. Fourthly, the organizations must have and show a clear objective of their role and input when they will be members of the network.
