I read this word in the following sentence:
we work together with all partners - including bilateral, multilateral, the international finance agencies like World Bank, ADB, the academic institutions, and the civil society including NGOs and community-based organizations.

I don not know how to clearly understand it.

The writer seems to mean non-official, non-governmental groups.
