Description

The project "New normal - Challenges and Opportunities for NGOs" aims to ensure sustainable and consistent development of the NGO sector, adapting to new realities and enabling high-quality and full involvement and participation of NGO representatives in decision-making processes from the very beginning at all stages. The target group of the project is representatives of NGOs (employees, volunteers, members of management bodies), state politicians (elected / appointed) and representatives of the public sector (civil servants, employees of state institutions and bodies, managers and employees of state or municipal enterprises).

The project aims to (1) ensure equal and consistent (involvement) cooperation of NGOs with authorities and institutions and (2) strengthen weak civil society organizations in order to increase civic participation in society and (3) seek opportunities to ensure sustainable and long-term funding for NGOs.

The project activities directly and consistently contribute to the main objectives of the ACF program and seek to sustainably strengthen civil society, enable it to play a more active and responsible role by strengthening civil society representation, advocacy and common values - freedom, respect for human dignity and rights, democracy, equality, the rule of law, responding to a zero waste culture, a green course, etc. Particular attention will be paid to activating organizations operating in the regions by strengthening their capacities and skills.
