During 2023 – 2025, ECAS will implement the ProEUvaluesBG project to raise public awareness of EU values at national, regional and local levels in Bulgaria and to provide capacity-building and financial support to Bulgarian CSOs in order to enhance their role as key messengers.
The project is led by the Open Society Institute – Sofia (OSIS) in collaboration with ECAS and Workshop for Civic Initiatives Foundation (WCIF). Two funding streams will be available for applicants – one for grassroots CSOs and the other for initiatives and strategic actions from more experienced organisations.
ECAS will lead the project’s capacity-building work, providing training in both online and in-person environments to aspiring and selected applicant organisations. Grassroots CSOs selected in the smaller funding stream will receive intensive and detailed capacity-building, while masterclasses and exchanges of good practices will support organisations implementing larger projects.
The training programme called “Guide,” will focus on the three thematic areas of the call – European rights, Democracy and Non-discrimination.
The project objectives are:
The project “Rights and Values” (ProEUvaluesBG) is co-funded by the European Union.
