The project LIBERTE, EGALITE, SOLIDARITE reflects the organic need for cooperation between CSOs in Serbia and in Ukraine that has been detected by the results of the research conducted during the 2023 emphasizing a practical bottom-up approach to strengthening civil sector capacity and the need to share experience and methodologies that have proven to be effective in the field, successfully raising awareness of the importance of active, timely and coordinated action.

The project will lead to establishing a platform that would facilitate the cooperation in the long term and in that way not only strengthen the civil sectors of both nations but also enhance their ability to manage complex socio-political challenges collectively while promoting shared values and mutual understanding.

Supported by the Embassy of Canada to Serbia and ERSTE Foundation.
