ACT

For an active civil society together

ACT addresses the challenges of civic activism in Serbia by: providing targeted support to civil society organizations (CSOs) for their organizational development, financial sustainability, as well as for strengthening their relations with citizens and enhancing their networking capacities.

ACT-1 (2019 – 2023)

During the implementation period of the first phase of the ACT project (October 2019 – May 2023), we supported 184 CSOs from across Serbia on their journey to become resilient, accountable, and adaptable organizations. Today, many of these CSOs can more legitimately represent and better mobilize people, support them in raising their voices, and ensure they are truly heard by local authorities.

ACT-2 (2023 – 2027)

The second phase of the ACT project (November 2023 – October 2027) is designed as a four-year support for CSOs with the aim of tackling social changes and responding to the challenges of civic activism in Serbia. Building on the achievements and lessons learned from the first phase and considering the worsening socio-political context for civic activism in Serbia, ACT-2 continues to strengthen civil society actors.
