Building Bridges, Facing Challenges: building bridges between the civil society and communities on two banks of Nistru River

Project Description
The stalled political conflict in the Transnistrian region brought to a deep divide between the societies of the two banks of Nistru. The action aims at fostering sustainable partnerships and capacity of civil society actors on both banks of Nistru river through the establishment of cross-river platforms of cooperation at community level.
Specific Objective
- To strengthen the role of civil society organisations and networks in creating social mechanisms of confidence building.
- To contribute to the implementation of the EU/Moldova Association Agreement to support the active involvement of civil society.
- To promote democratic values and respect for human rights.
- To strengthen regional cooperation, between different regions of Moldova, Transnistria being of special interest in this sense.
- In this context involvement of civil society actors and creation of cooperation networks between CSOs and local communities in the regions will contribute to conflict mediation and confidence building involving non-state actors.
Expected Results
The partners of the project will contribute to boost the capacity of civil society organisations, initiative groups and media in the region to meaningfully participate in confidence-building processes between the two banks of the river. In doing so, the project will enable effective mechanisms for collecting experience through the establishment of effective learning mechanisms and facilitating replicability of used techniques.
