Civil Society Strengthening for equal and full participation in civic, economic and political life

Апісанне
The action, implemented by HEKS-EPER, promotes the inclusion and empowerment of women and men from ethnic minority communities. It will strengthen the role of civil society in advancing human rights and democratic participation of ethnic minorities. It further aims to enhance the capacity of civil society organizations (CSOs) to meaningfully engage in policy-making processes and policy dialogue. Civil society groups, activists and media outlets in the two targeted regions (Kvemo Kartli and Samtkhe-Javakheti) will be empowered to engage in advocacy work with local authorities and influence regional/central authorities to promote more gender-responsive, inclusive, and sustainable development. Along with civil society empowerment, the action will create spaces for dialogue between civil society and duty bearers and strengthen local business development by better equipping small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to tap into opportunities generated by the Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Area (DCFTA).
