The aim of the study is to clarify the new mechanisms for promoting civil society institutions and activating their role in monitoring, following up and evaluating development programs and electoral processes, in addition to focusing on local groups as a basis for embodying citizenship and effective participation. Regarding the methods used, we adopted the descriptive and analytical approaches to analyze the subject and study it from various aspects. In the end, we reached several results, the most important of which is that civil society, according to the approach of good governance and participatory democracy, has become a new actor in managing local public affairs through the new constitutional and legal formulas to involve it in the process of raising the aspirations of individuals and making development programs and policies.
